One of the oldest Tampa suburbs
Tampa Heights is one of Tampa’s oldest suburbs and remains a highly desirable living destination. It attracts residents with its urban village vibe and distinct historical character. The neighborhood sits north of downtown and above the flood zone. “We’re just close to everything and there’s a high walkability factor,” says Justin Ricke, a principal agent at Compass Florida and 14-year resident of Tampa Heights. “I can walk to Ybor City, I can walk to downtown, and I can walk to the river.” Residents enjoy the liveliness of Tampa through the abundance of restaurants at Armature Works and weekly city events. Several murals circulate the neighborhood and showcase artisans' crafts. Additionally, community engagement is prominent through the neighborhood association.
