The Economy League of Greater Philadelphia (ELGP) is our region's independent ‘think-and-do tank,’ founded in 1909 by forward-thinking business leaders, united by the belief that business has a civic responsibility beyond profit-making, and that it is the citizen’s business to ensure that local government and the local economy work for all.  Today we count more than 60 companies on our Board of Directors; we occupy unique space in the civic ecosystem, at the nexus of the private, public, and nonprofit sectors.  The Economy League is a trusted cross-sector convener squarely pointed at driving collaborative solutions to complex civic challenges.

Our third and final installment of the Leading Indicators “Know Your Price, Philadelphia” series examines four neighborhoods in four different City Council Districts: Lower Moyamensing (1st CD), Cobbs Creek (3rd CD), Fairhill (5th CD), and Millbrook (10th CD). Each neighborhood has seen little to no property value appreciation since 1950. 

Our research has identified a $57 billion gap in cumulative property values between majority-white and majority-Black and Latino neighborhoods. Read the report as well as Parts I and II at https://ow.ly/XUOF50QFKke
