Moving to St. Petersburg, Florida

Waterfront living, a walkable downtown, a serious arts scene, and sunshine most of the year. Here's a quick look at life in the Sunshine City.

Why people fall for St. Pete

St. Petersburg sits on a peninsula between Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, so the water is part of daily life almost everywhere you go. Unlike much of Florida, it has a real downtown with waterfront parks, independent restaurants, museums, and murals, much of it reachable on foot.

Neighborhoods to know

Snell Isle

One of the city's most prestigious addresses, with waterfront estates, golf-course homes, and bay views.

Historic Old Northeast

Brick streets, mature trees, and historic architecture, an easy walk or bike ride to downtown.

Venetian Isles

Built for boaters, with deep-water canals and quick access to Tampa Bay.

Downtown St. Pete

Luxury condos and contemporary homes steps from dining, shopping, and the waterfront.

Lifestyle

The Dalí Museum holds the largest collection of Salvador Dalí's work outside Spain, and street art lines downtown. Beach Drive and Central Avenue are home to waterfront dining, local spots, and breweries, and the Saturday Morning Market is a neighborhood tradition. On the water, boating, paddleboarding, and fishing are year-round, and the Gulf beaches and Fort De Soto are close by.

Getting around

Downtown is one of Florida's most walkable areas, and the SunRunner rapid bus connects it to St. Pete Beach. Tampa International (TPA) is about 30 minutes away with wide nonstop service, and St. Pete-Clearwater (PIE) is a smaller option with low-cost carriers.

Your move, step by step

  1. Visit and explore. Spend a few days in two or three neighborhoods at different times of day.
  2. Set your must-haves. Water access, dock or lift, walkability, lot size, and style of home.
  3. Tour and offer. Virtual tours make it easy to shop from afar.
  4. Plan your move. Book movers 4 to 6 weeks out, and have the AC running before furniture arrives.
