Asking what rich neighborhoods Tampa has is a great question. First let's focus on Tampa FL and the much larger Tampa Bay area which you may also mean. Tampa FL has Davis Islands, South Tampa, Downtown Tampa and Harbour Island which most would agree are the richest neighborhoods in Tampa if you are looking for an area.
Culbreath Isles south of the Beach Park neighborhood is the most expensive among the wealthiest neighborhoods in Tampa. Many have not heard of it and you even have to look close to see it when driving by. Many of the homes are on the bay or canals leading to the actual Tampa Bay the Tampa Bay area gets it's name from. The Beach Park neighborhood also has Beach Park Isle ( some say Beach Park Isles) which is also on Tampa Bay. Any home in Beach Park would be amazing for most Tampa residents.
All along the Western Shore of South Tampa you will find amazing condos and traditional single family homes. Many would call them mansions and deserve ably so. However, South Tampa also has Hyde Park which also has a fairly high average home price and median household income. It is one of the more esteemed Tampa neighborhoods however, it will not outprice many waterfront neighborhoods in this city. See more about Hyde Park as it is very nice.
Davis Islands or as some say Davis Island (it is actually 2 islands and used to be 3) is definitely one of the largest neighborhoods in Tampa and has a very high average home price. Of all of the neighborhoods in Tampa this is one of the two places I would consider moving to. To me, among Tampa neighborhoods is reigns as king. If you have deep pockets and a lust for convenience and luxury learn much more about Davis Islands as this is the richest neighborhood of this size.
Yes and there are two bridges connecting Harbour island with Downtown Tampa that are very walkable. I have done so many times. The median home value may not be as high as the median home value of Davis Islands but most of Harbour Island is a gated community (communities behind a common gate). There are homes here of every particular taste and a they have a very respectable median home value.
The rich neighborhoods in the Tampa Bay area will be the same as I have listed above with only a few exceptions. For those who are new to learning about Tampa Bay it basically is an area encompassing everything from the east side of Tampa FL to the Gulf of Mexico. It includes St Petersburg FL and Clearwater FL.
Those two areas have Clearwater Beach and St Pete Beach. The best neighborhoods for families will likely be in Clearwater FL while a more beach oriented partier will find the perfect neighborhood in Clearwater Beach. St Pete Beach is more laid back.
