The City of Tampa, should be given credit. Democrats run the city, today run by a lesbian Democrat mayor. Their tolerance for the homeless is very low. The city, and their leaders, should be lauded for their efforts to protect the city proper. They police the streets very thoroughly.

The traffic blows. I've lived here since 1980 and it's not the same place, AT ALL.

All places change, usually for the worse, but when comparing them to other cities then perhaps it's not so bad.

Progress and change are inevitable. I would like my grandchildren to be able to grow up in the same neighborhood that I grew up in.
But then, we would be back to stone streets with drainage ditches that completely flooded when there was much rain, no medical center or localized doctors, poor sanitary sewers, crowded schools, poor phone service and a whole lot more that they take for granted today

Retro Island is where I want to go. Florida has regressed to the point that many long time residents (I grew up in S Fl) are having to look elsewhere due to the costs of bringing substandard facilities up to today's building standards. Not to mention homeowner's insurance demands for coverage (at twice the price of a few years ago). I used to make fun of friends leaving the state in the 90's due to what they thought was overcrowding. Not so much anymore. I've been on our HOA board and won't make that mistake again. Politics have gotten in the way of common sense.

My Childhood Home is now a parking lot for a Jewish Tennis center. North Miami Beach. It was..or is a small town that is now swallowed by Miami called Ojus. The old saying is true..you can never go home again.

Me and the wife spent a long weekend there a month or so ago. We were pleasantly surprised.

That is good to hear
Some really bad neighborhoods on the North Side of Chicago have turned around unbelievably.
The problem is that they border some neighborhoods that are very crime ridden. The criminal element raids the better neighborhoods regularly

My wife is from Tampa. We used to go there regularly. Haven't been there in a while. Always something to do there.
