How We Determined The Wealthiest Neighborhoods In Tampa For 2024
Every city has its best neighborhoods — where everyone wants to live — and the worst neighborhoods — where no one wants to live. And then you have the wealthiest neighborhoods, where no one can afford to live.
And by no one, we mean you because there’s always someone richer than you.
How do you quantify richer than you? We looked at one simple criterion:
Which neighborhoods have the highest median income?
Using Saturday Night Science, we researched income data from the Census and BLS for every neighborhood in Tampa.
We ranked every neighborhood in Tampa by median income from highest to lowest. The neighborhood with the highest median income, Sunset Park, was named the wealthiest neighborhood in Tampa.
The richest neighborhoods in Tampa are Sunset Park, Culbreath, Parkland Estates, Golf View, Belmar Gardens, Beach Park, Bayshore Beautiful, Palma Ceia, Swann Estates, and Palma Ceia West.
The poorest neighborhood? That would be Highland Pines.
The poorest neighborhoods in Tampa are Highland Pines, Orient Park, Florence, Grant Park, and Temple Park.
We updated this article for 2024. This is our tenth time ranking the most affluent neighborhoods to live in Tampa.
