    Living in St. Petersburg, FL

    Living in location

    St. Petersburg is a small city on the western coast of Florida that's known for its white-sand beaches, cultural attractions and lively arts scene. Here, the pleasant year-round weather allows renters to enjoy sunbathing and water activities on its popular beaches and explore the local parks, trails and nature preserves. St. Petersburg is also a cultural and art hub that's home to the Salvador Dali Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts and the Chihuly Collection. It also has stunning street art, trendy restaurants, lively nightlife spots and versatile entertainment venues.

    The downtown waterfront offers unparalleled views, and the city's rich history can be traced back through its well-preserved architecture and historical landmarks. The Grand Central District is perfect for shopping enthusiasts, while Tropicana Field draws baseball fans nationwide. And, with numerous festivals and events throughout the year, there's always something happening in St. Petersburg. As a city with a tropical climate, renters will experience a mix of warm, humid summers and mild, drier winters. Temperatures range between 53°F and 90°F, with a pleasant sea breeze during hot months and plenty of rain, but renters should be wary of the Atlantic hurricane season from June to November.

    Renting in St. Petersburg, FL

    St. Petersburg is popular among renters looking for coastal living with many houses and apartments offering ocean views. Specifically, historic Kenwood and downtown St. Petersburg have apartments close to everyday amenities, trendy cafes, and nightlife clubs, while neighborhoods like historic Roser Park, historic Old Northeast, Snell Isle, and North Kenwood have a mix of craftsman bungalows, colonial revival and prairie rental homes. These are popular options for families and renters looking to be close to everyday necessities, while also enjoying more peaceful surroundings. Otherwise, Coquina Key, Old Southeast, and Crescent Lake are popular options among renters who enjoy outdoor activities and nature, as green spaces, parks and recreational activities surround most rentals. Notably, with recent changes to the law, landlords can provide the option for renters to pay a monthly fee instead of the security deposit, which is one month's rent when charged. Landlords also have to provide and maintain a habitable rental unit, while the payment of utilities is agreed upon between both parties with the renter commonly carrying the responsibility.
