Pinellas County, FL
St. Petersburg
Overview
St. Petersburg occupies the Tampa Bay side of the Pinellas peninsula, a genuinely urban waterfront city built around downtown parks, museums, and a historic core of brick-street neighborhoods. It draws buyers who want city life on the water, from downtown high-rise condos to bungalows in Old Northeast.
The city's identity is shaped by its museums and public art, its waterfront parks along Tampa Bay, and a downtown that has grown into one of the more walkable urban cores in the region. Gulf beaches like St. Pete Beach and Treasure Island sit on separate barrier islands nearby, reachable across the causeways.
Legacy Real Estate Associates is based in Bradenton and represents buyers and sellers throughout St. Petersburg as part of our work across the greater Tampa Bay area. We work with clients relocating for the city's urban lifestyle as well as longtime residents selling in established neighborhoods.
Location
St. Petersburg occupies the southern end of the Pinellas peninsula, bordered by Tampa Bay to the east and Boca Ciega Bay to the west, south of Clearwater and Largo. The Sunshine Skyway Bridge connects the city to Manatee County and the rest of Southwest Florida to the south.
