About Anyone from Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater area

Anyone from Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater area?
I am looking for a nice place to live in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater area. I will be moving with my fiance in May to work at a position in Oldsmar, which is located on the north side of Tampa Bay. We are interested in finding an apartment in the range of $700-$1000. So far we have found communities like Westchase, and East Lake. Are there any other suggestions?

About Tampa Bay/St. Petersburg Poll......Is It a city of "The Rich vs The Poor

Tampa Bay/St. Petersburg Poll......Is It a city of "The Rich vs The Poor"?
I'm polling those in Tampa/ St. Pete to see if working there is worth It........ What are the typical jobs? If one puts in the effort can he/she keep up with the cost of living there? Or is Tampa a city of "The Rich vs The Poor" like in Miami. I'm a recent college grad thinking of relocating there. Many thanks for any insight you can provide!

Answer 1 :
The cost of housing in Tampa has risen dramatically for the past few years, but it is still a reasonably affordable place. There are many rentals available in an affordable price range for a young professional. if you wish to purchase a home, there are still many condos and condo-conversions available in a low price range. I grew up in Tampa and lived there for two years after my undergraduate degree. I purchased a one bedroom condo that was very affordable and was not a burden on my budget at all. Further, Tampa has become very popular with young professionals and has an active social scene. The beaches are unbeatable. It is a really nice place to live.
Answer 2 :
Tampa & St. Pete have many service oriented business because of the tourist industry. We moved from Chicago to Tampa in January. I took my job with me & my husband found employment immediately at a bank in downtown Tampa. Cost of living? Well we pay more for a smaller place here,no tax on groceries, but prices are higher, wages far lower for same positions & the water actually STINKS! On the plus side, it's like your on vacation every weekend. Great weather,beautiful beaches....I can handle it!
Answer 3 :
It depends on the area you choose.I live in Lakeland.Tampa is just to crowded for my taste

i'm not sure but i know that u need some kind of permit in order to use it on a public beach. my dad was gonna get one but he got a watch instead...u don't need a permit to use a watch...
Answer 2 :
Yes, but they take practice and I never got the hang of it. Look in the classified ads for a used one and have them show you how to use it. Also, you could go fishing and at least get a meal out of the deal. If you do go for a metal detector, try it right after a storm in the early morning at the beach because stuff gets washed ashore then, and try around lakes with designated swimming areas because people lose rings there, and around and under benches in sandy areas or with lots of wood chips (like at playgrounds) because people lose change there. Also, a metal detector doesn't work on this, but shark teeth are worth something - look on eBay and you'll see what I mean. Florida is a great place to find stuff. Check out treasure hunting websites online and you'll probably find a club near you. Hope you have more luck than I did! Maybe I wasn't patient enough
