St.Petersburg is a nice city, The downtown area is up and coming with lots of things to do every weekend. Plenty of jobs I would imagine at the university's. We have Eckerd College, St.pete College, USF , Stetson all in St.pete alone. As far as a newspaper , You can check out Tampa Tribune or St.Pete times, Both have online web sites you can browse through.

It is true we don't have state tax, but we have 6% sales tax and 1% penny for Pinellas tax. The main concern around here is property tax and house insurance, But if you can line up a nice job , you should be able to find something. There are plenty of condos and homes for sale. Condos you will have less property tax and less insurance costs. So just do some research and see what suits you best.
