He loved it.<br /><br />Tampa and surrounding areas have good public transportion but recent cutbacks have decreased the number of trips made daily. Bus ridership is high.<br /><br />Good areas are Carrollwood and the area surrounding Busch Blvd (where you will find Busch Gardens). They have lots of shopping, buses, etc.<br /><br />Bad areas are Seminole Heights, College Hill and the area around Univ of SF - drug use and crime related to drug use. Check with the Hillsborough Sheriff Dept for further info. By the way, everything in Florida is done by county - police, library, schools, etc.<br /><br />Avoid the areas near the coast - by at least a mile and be sure to check the storm surge maps. At in that same vein -Hurricane season is June - Nov. You must be prepared so check out the Hurricane preparedness booklets in the Tampa area.<br /><br />We've lived in FL, about 100 miles south of Tampa, for the last 7 years and love it - in spite of Hurricane Charley in 2007.<br /><br />Good luck with your search.Bellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249001827113998376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605038123653737692.post-35572108586679929582011-05-25T07:26:18.110-05:002011-05-25T07:26:18.110-05:00Enjoy, can't wait to hear about your new life ...Enjoy, can't wait to hear about your new life chapter!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
