Sense of community near Tampa
About 23,000 residents live in Northdale, about 15 miles north of Downtown Tampa. The area is mainly residential, with parks like Northdale Park scattered throughout the subdivisions and shopping along Florida Route 597, regionally called Dale Marby Highway. Many people who live in Northdale commute to Tampa for work. Major employers in the Tampa Bay area include the University of South Florida, the MacDill Air Force Base and Hillsborough County Public Schools. “It’s really about location,” says Ozzie Irizarry, Realtor with Charles Rutenberg Realty, Inc.

Subdivisions in Northdale date to the 1970s
Northdale is made up of subdivisions that were developed as early as the 1970s. Because they are older, there is more variety in the colors and styles of the houses. “It’s more dynamic in that area than some of the newer suburbs,” Irizarry says. Most common are ranch styles and contemporary homes, like those in Country Place and near the Northport Golf Club, although there are some new traditional houses. There are also several townhouses and condos available. The median housing price is $455,000, slightly higher than Tamp’s median. While the housing market has an average of 36 days, faster than the national average of 45 days, Irizarry says that “things are taking a little longer to sell.”
