How fast it's moving
Assessed-value change for the typical home. Philadelphia taxes a flat 1.3998% of value, so the bill moves with it.

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:
- 447 N 53rd Sttax-abated new construction0.08%$88/yr on $106K
- 403 N 53rd Sttax-abated new construction0.24%$295/yr on $121K
- 418 N 53rd Sttax-abated new construction0.25%$309/yr on $122K
- 405 N 53rd Stexemption0.28%$350/yr on $125K
- 409 N 53rd Stexemption0.28%$350/yr on $125K
- …and 10 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 418 N 53rd St is assessed at $122K but pays $309 a year — about 18% of the $1,709 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 beaten the Philadelphia market, compounding +9.7% 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 $276 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced the market.
