Tampa/St. Petersburg are Ranked #4
The most improved ranking amongst Florida’s major metro areas. An attractive business climate, no state income tax, and local economic growth make Tampa popular with workers, retirees and real estate returns. Job growth is forecast at 2.3 times the nation’s five-year forecast setting the stage for continued demand for Tampa real estate.
“Though Tampa-St. Petersburg might fly under the radar compared to its neighbors—the colorful Miami and heavily touristed Orlando—the metro area is no slouch amid Florida’s formidable peers. Tampa’s sunny climate, year-round sports, no state income tax, and booming economy have created a longtime draw for workers and retirees alike, leading Money magazine to name Tampa the ninth best place to live in the United States in 2022. The metro area has proven a good place for real estate investment capital to live as well, with 10-year annualized total returns of 8.6 percent in NCREIF’s NPI. Tampa moved up 14 spots in Emerging Trends’ U.S. Markets to Watch over the past year, the most improved ranking among Florida’s major metro areas (and tied for highest upward movement in the state with Deltona/Daytona Beach and Gainesville); Tampa is also the first U.S. Market to Watch for homebuilding prospects.” -Emerging Trends in Real Estate®
