Looks like we are headed to the Tampa area this summer. Any recommendations on areas to live? Will be commuting to MacDill Daily.

Ed ZacharyI think @osobad lives in that area, maybe he can tell you where to look.
Yes, MacDill AFBMacDill AFB?
If so, that's not too far from St Pete. That's the area I'd be looking at if it were me. I'm not too familiar with "neighborhoods" in Tampa but all the places I've been to near the water have been nice.
@osobad lives that way, maybe he can chime in
St Pete is about 30 minutes from there, the coast side maybe another 15. I've been to a buddy's house in (Apollo Beach) it was a really nice neighborhood, I think most homes have water access. Clearwater is also a nice area. All depends on how close you need to be or how far you're willing to commuteYes, MacDill AFB
I would look just north of Tampa . Wesley Chapel, Land o lakes, etc. Close to I75 or Veterans express way. You would be able to get anywhere in the bay area very easy. It would be a littel cheaper and very nice areasLooks like we are headed to the Tampa area this summer. Any recommendations on areas to live? Will be commuting to MacDill Daily.
I would would try to stay away from Pinellas county. Nice yes but if you want to get to Tampa or go north etc, it is a b**** to get out ofSt Pete is about 30 minutes from there, the coast side maybe another 15.

That's a little higher than NW Arkansas but not much.My son owns a house in St. Petersburg, he told me that the average apartment rents for $2K a month...
They all start to blend together too. Keeping notes and throwing out hard no’s quickly helps but it still sucksI think I’ve looked at very 3/4 bedroom within an hour radius. My head hurts,lol.
Well it looks like Wesley Chapel is the winner of the home search lottery. Unfortunately I will not be able to park trailers at the house so now I'm on a new search.
Any place like an HOA that tells you what you can and can’t do on your own property can go suck an egg a very rotten egg sat on by Nancy PelosiWell it looks like Wesley Chapel is the winner of the home search lottery.

Just curios, where are you moving from?I hear you, I tried real hard to find something I liked without an HOA but its been tough. The place we decided on actually doesn't have an HOA, however Florida plays the game with CDDs (HOA like restrictions by another name). At just a few weeks from the move we were down to crunch time. Probably not my "forever home" so I'll make do. Thanks everyone
