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:
- 407 N 59th Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $15K
- 416 N 59th Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $152K
- 431 N 59th Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $120K
- 409 N 59th Sttax-abated new construction0.21%$241/yr on $117K
- 426 N 59th Stexemption0.33%$430/yr on $131K
- …and 2 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 416 N 59th St is assessed at $152K but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $2,133 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 +8.5% 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 $246 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced the market.
