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:
- 601 N 43rd Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $808K
- 617-27 N 43rd Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $24M
- 628 N 43rd Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $126K
- 629 N 43rd Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $76K
- 631 N 43rd Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $17K
- …and 7 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 617-27 N 43rd St is assessed at $24M but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $335,507 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 +8.3% 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 $241 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block outpaced the market.
