Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay opens in Hyde Park, Tampa's first suburb west of the river: a streetcar-era grid of Craftsman bungalows and revival houses under live oaks, Bayshore Boulevard's 4.5 mile waterfront sidewalk on one side and SoHo's restaurant row on the other, minutes from downtown.

Metro Snapshot

Hyde Park sets the first comparison points. Its Redfin median sale price of $1,024,713 (three months ending September 2026, up 12.9 percent year over year, on 28 sales) buys a Walk Score of 89 at 1601 West Swann Avenue, an average one-bedroom apartment rent of $2,140 (Apartments.com, May 2026), and a taxi to downtown Tampa of 1.9 miles in 4 minutes. Around it, the metro brackets the range: Davis Islands trades an island setting south across the causeway, Seminole Heights trades Tampa's other historic bungalow district to the northeast, and Ybor City trades the historic cigar district east of downtown.
