Who really pays
Philadelphia charges every home the same 1.40% of its assessed value. Abatements and exemptions shrink what some homes are taxed on — here's this block:
- 2217 N 52nd Sttax-abated new construction0.37%$2,605/yr on $705K
- 2227-31 N 52nd Stexemption0.75%$1,639/yr on $217K
- 2284-90 N 52nd Stexemption0.84%$2,116/yr on $251K
- 2200-02 N 52nd Stexemption0.97%$3,158/yr on $326K
- 2278-82 N 52nd Stexemption0.97%$3,196/yr on $328K
- …and 7 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 2217 N 52nd St is assessed at $705K but pays $2,605 a year — about 26% of the $9,869 it would owe at the full rate, because its new-construction value is abated for 10 years.
