Properties (sometimes called environment) are held in udev's database; they
can be set via ENV{} or imported from helpers (e.g. hwdb, blkid...).

Attributes correspond directly to files in sysfs; they can be read or set
via ATTR{}, but you're always limited to only the information exported by
the *kernel*.
