Apart from theme parks and strip clubs, there didn\u2019t seem to be much happening. And kids plus creeps make for an uncomfortable combo. So we\u2019re all thankful \u2013 locals and visitors alike \u2013 that Tampa has completely transformed. Now the city is packed with killer breweries, a great music scene, and incredible outdoor and water activities (need we say more than kayaking with manatees?).<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before we jump into specific neighborhoods, let\u2019s go over the lay of the land:<\/span><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tampa is part of the greater metropolitan region known as the Tampa Bay Area. So a lot of people lump in the neighboring <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" title=\"St. Petersburg\" href=\"\/fl\/st-petersburg\/movers\/\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">St. Petersburg<\/a>, Clearwater, Brandon, and Spring Hill when talking about the area. Six general sections (New Tampa, West Tampa, Brooklyn Village, Downtown Tampa, Ybor City, and Channel District) divide up all of Tampa\u2019s neighborhoods. And there are over a hundred of them\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But don\u2019t worry, our list should narrow down your options. Before you know it, you\u2019ll be sun-baked and chewin\u2019 on a salami-packed Cuban sandwich and with your fellow Tampanions.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"South_Howard\"><\/span>South Howard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">South Howard is quickly becoming one of Tampa\u2019s most popular neighborhoods. And millennials are moving in. Why? Because South Howard is stacked with great bars, restaurants, and venues. The neighborhood still has character though \u2013 it\u2019s certainly not a row of only junky dive bars. This residential district sits within the greater Hyde Park neighborhood and is littered with historic architecture. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>What\u2019s Happening in SoHo<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With such a great location, SoHo is within walking distance to high-end restaurants, popular cafes, nightlife venues, locally-owned vintage clothing stores, art galleries, and the waterside Bayshore Boulevard. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over time, SoHo has developed into a unique blend of historic + chic-modern + no-shame nightlife. Century-old homes bring a rich character to the area. Posh boutiques and opulent restaurants set up shop next to not-so-classy nigh clubs. In a way, the ironic name of the 20-year-old SoHo dinner joint, Gourmet Pizza, encapsulates the mix-matched themes of this neighborhood.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For great local eats, visit Civiche, 717 South, and The Green Lemon.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>Schools in SoHo<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schools near SoHo include Hyde Park Day School, Woodrow Wilson Middle School, and St. John\u2019s Episcopal Parish Day School among others. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>Homes in SoHo<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quirky and quaint homes line these historic streets. But with more people moving in, newer housing buildings keep popping up. It is pricey &#8211; expect to pay over a half-million if you&#8217;re looking for a larger home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4527 lazyload\" title=\"The Best Places to Live in Tampa (2022) Bellhop Blog\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"The Best Places to Live in Tampa (2022) Bellhop Blog\" width=\"1880\" height=\"1253\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1880px) 100vw, 1880px\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tampa5.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tampa5.jpg 1880w, https:\/\/www.bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tampa5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tampa5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tampa5-1024x682.jpg 1024w\"><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dunedin\"><\/span>Dunedin<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This neighborhood isn\u2019t only on a beach. It\u2019s on one of the best beaches. A trip to neighboring Caladesi Island State Park will leave you agreeing with us. This pretty pocket has breweries and BBQ, white-sand beach parks, and views of the Gulf of Mexico. Its one of the oldest towns on the West Coast of the state, and it\u2019s home to community gardens, downtown markets, museums, golf courses, and sports complexes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>What\u2019s Happening in Dunedin<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To truly immerse yourself in Dunedin\u2019s culture, you have to attend the annual Scottish celebrations. You may have to buy a kilt to fit in here\u2026and start practicing you heavy-rock-throw if you want a good dose of Scottish respect from your neighbors. <\/span><\/p><div class=\"getbe-middle\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; \" id=\"getbe-1104261576\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getbellhops.com\/book\/service\/\" aria-label=\"The Better Way to Move\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"The Better Way to Move\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" width=\"600\" height=\"160\" style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/600x160.png\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/600x160.png 600w, https:\/\/www.bellhopblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/600x160-300x80.png 300w\"><\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But it\u2019s not all plaid skirts and bizarre activities. Dunedin\u2019s charming downtown interests locals with quaint shops and occasional events. The nearby Honeymoon Islands State Park offers locals a piece of untouched tropical beauty. And restaurants, bars, and breweries add the cherry on top. Check out Eli\u2019s Bar-B-Que, Bon App\u00e9tit, and HEW Parlor &amp; Chophouse for some incredible local eats.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Homes_in_Dunedin\"><\/span>Homes in Dunedin<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p>Homes average around $450,000 in late 2024, driven by high demand.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ybor_City_and_The_Channel_District\"><\/span>Ybor City and The Channel District<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ybor sings with the charm of restored brick roads and an active trolley system. This area uniquely blends eclectic with old-timey. It\u2019s offerings of one-of-a-kind, locally-owned shops and restaurants make the area of Ybor feel like a hole in the wall. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>What\u2019s Happening in Ybor City and The Channel District<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ybor is gaining attention. And since the announcement that the Tampa Bay Rays plan to move to the neighborhood, more people have been turning their heads in Ybor\u2019s direction.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With or without the Blue Rays though, Ybor offers its locals plenty of interesting things to do. The area regularly throws festivals, parades, and events. And Tampanions know the area for its prime nightlife, with clubs, bars, and music venues that will blissfully pass the night away. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to experience the soul of the city? Smoke a hand-rolled stogie from Nicahabana Cigars. Ybor City is known for its historical Cuban cigar factories, and there are still quite a few available for perusing.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>Schools in Ybor City and The Channel District<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getbellhops.com\/blog\/what-are-the-best-schools-in-tampa\/\">Schools near Ybor City and The Channel District include Phillip Shore School and Academy Prep Center of Tampa<\/a> among others. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>Homes in Ybor City and The Channel District<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Ybor City and the Channel District, historic homes intermingle with newly constructed homes and apartments.

And with this change came an available market to target. Since then, myriads of activities, events, restaurants, bars, and shops have opened up and cashed in on these new residents. Well, interestingly enough, this change has made St. Petersburg even more attractive to young adults looking for their dream place to live. And St. Petersburg hits a lot of requirements on the list. <\/span>(Oh, and we are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getbellhops.com\/fl\/st-petersburg\/movers\/\">St. Petersburg movers<\/a> too, by the way).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>What\u2019s Happening in St. Petersburg<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">St. Petersburg started off right \u2013 with brick-lined streets, large sidewalks, aesthetic architecture, and waterfront parks. Now, the area has an event every weekend, Saturday Morning Markets, and a courtyard music venue. St. Petersburg\u2019s got nightlife down. Central Avenue will require that you pace yourself, with its notable breweries, cocktail joints, dive bars, clubs, and speakeasies. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locals of this beachy paradise live in the excitement and vibrancy of downtown life \u2013 walking to farmers markets and coffee shops, enjoying eclectic cuisines, and attending festivals and regular concerts. No matter where you are in St. Pete, the beach is a 20 minute or less trip away, making it a regular stop for locals who like to play a pickup game of beach volleyball or enjoy a blended drink at one of the beachfront restaurants. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>Schools in St. Pete Beach<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schools in St. Petersburg include Pasadena Fundamental Elementary School, Plato Academy of St. Petersburg, and Bay Vista Fundamental Elementary School among others. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>Homes in St. Pete Beach<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">St. Petersburg is known for its large and beautiful homes, with prices well north of $650K in 2024. But finding affordable and lower-priced houses is very doable, and downtown offers great apartments and houses for rent. <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"There_you_have_it_the_best_places_to_live_in_Tampa\"><\/span>There you have it: the best places to live in Tampa!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We hope this was helpful, and if you decide to take the plunge, don\u2019t hesitate to reach out to your friends here at Bellhop.
