Who really pays — each home's tax bill as a share of its value

Philadelphia charges every home the same 1.40% of its assessed value. On this block, 5 of 21 homes pay that full rate — and 16 pay less, because abatements and exemptions shrink the taxed value. Each dot is one home; the further left, the less of its value it pays. Hover a dot for the house.
