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:
- 2229 S 70th Sttax-abated new construction0.13%$148/yr on $111K
- 2236 S 70th Sttax-abated new construction0.16%$183/yr on $113K
- 2238 S 70th Sttax-abated new construction0.16%$183/yr on $113K
- 2240 S 70th Sttax-abated new construction0.16%$183/yr on $113K
- 2242 S 70th Sttax-abated new construction0.16%$183/yr on $113K
The starkest example: 2236 S 70th St is assessed at $113K but pays $183 a year — about 12% of the $1,583 it would owe at the full rate, because its new-construction value is abated for 10 years.
The block as an asset
Read like a financial asset, this block has lagged the Philadelphia market, compounding +4.5% a year against the city's 6.5%.
Indexed performance · this block vs. the Philadelphia market
Rebased to 100 in 2016, like a stock against its index. $100 in the typical home here would be worth $162 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block trailed the market.
