 Homestead Exclusions
Homestead and farmstead exclusions can be implemented under Act 50 of 1998 in a taxing jurisdiction (school district, county, or municipality) without any change to the existing local tax structure as long as they can pay for it without increasing real property taxes.
Because the homestead and farmstead exclusions are not necessarily tied directly to the school tax changes in Act 50 of 1998, this webpage does not attempt to address tax reform issues except where they may relate to the exclusions.
The maximum size of the homestead exclusion is ½ of the median assessed value of homestead property in the jurisdiction, as determined by the county assessor.

 The American Experience | Andrew Carnegie | People & Events | The Homestead Strike
One of the most difficult episodes Andrew Carnegie's life -- and one that revealed the steel magnate's conflicting beliefs regarding the rights of labor -- was the bitter conflict in 1892 at his steel plant in Homestead, Pennsylvania.
The conflict at Homestead arose at a time when the fast-changing American economy had stumbled and conflicts between labor and management had flared up all over the country.
