What it's worth, and where taxes are going

• $653K typical home, up +65% since 2016
• Tax bill $4,160 to $8,245 a year, +6%/yr and compounding
• Whole block: $36M assessed, $468,360/yr to the city, about $9,184 per home

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:

• 725 S 11th Sttax-abated new construction0.73%$4,288/yr on $591K
• 716-18 S 11th Stexemption0.98%$3,299/yr on $336K
• 737 S 11th Stexemption1.09%$4,838/yr on $446K
• 737 S 11th Stexemption1.09%$4,838/yr on $446K
• 701 S 11th Stexemption1.15%$6,415/yr on $558K
• …and 18 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart

The starkest example: 725 S 11th St is assessed at $591K but pays $4,288 a year — about 52% of the $8,274 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 +4.6% a year against the city's 6.5%.

Indexed performance · this block vs. the Philadelphia market
