St. Pete is a crowded but nice city. They have a nice downtown
district that's safe. You'll be close to the beach no matter where you
live. St. Pete has numbered streets so it's easier to navigate than
Tampa. The cons are the number of senior citizens who drive slow, the
out-dated roads that seem to be always "under construction", the hot
and humid summers, and the number of Blacks for a small city... To
live in a descent neighborhood I suggest that you have an annual
income of at least $45,000.
