The 0.99% property tax rate reflects the county-level effective rate for Philadelphia and is used to calculate your monthly tax escrow above. This rate may differ from the statewide Pennsylvania average — county-level data produces more accurate monthly payment estimates for Philadelphia buyers. Many Philadelphia properties also carry HOA fees — the area average is approximately $50/month, which is not included in the calculator above.
