2 properties on this block carry a tax abatement or major exemption. New construction and gut rehabs get the improvement value exempted for up to 10 years, so their tax bills sit far below their real value — block-wide, exemptions keep about $28,766 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

5819 Anderson St is assessed at $177K but pays $1,398 a year — about 56% of the $2,483 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
