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:
- 7453 Elmwood Avetax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $162K
- 7451 Elmwood Aveexemption0.48%$740/yr on $153K
- 7403 Elmwood Aveexemption0.52%$822/yr on $159K
- 7407 Elmwood Aveexemption0.52%$822/yr on $159K
- 7411 Elmwood Aveexemption0.52%$822/yr on $159K
- …and 19 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 7453 Elmwood Ave is assessed at $162K but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $2,268 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 tracked the Philadelphia market, compounding +6.4% a year against the city's 6.5%.
