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:
- 6000 N 20th Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $6K
- 6002 N 20th Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $6K
- 6006 N 20th Sttax-abated new construction0.26%$318/yr on $123K
- 6014 N 20th Sttax-abated new construction0.27%$329/yr on $124K
The starkest example: 6014 N 20th St is assessed at $124K but pays $329 a year — about 19% of the $1,729 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 lagged the Philadelphia market, compounding +4.2% 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 $158 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block trailed the market.
