What it's worth, and where taxes are going

• $132K typical home, up +135% since 2016
• Tax bill $745 to $1,368 a year, +6%/yr and compounding
• Whole block: $5.1M assessed, $48,223/yr to the city, about $1,303 per home

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, 21 of 37 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.

The starkest example: 4842 N Carlisle St is assessed at $150K but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $2,104 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 +8.1% 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 $235 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced the market.

Return is from assessed-value history (a proxy for market price, lumpy in reassessment years); rental yield is estimated from ACS area rents. Informational only, not investment advice.
