I need help!! We are thinking of moving to the Tampa area. I am able to transfer my job and my husband will look for a job when we get there. 2 kids-17 and 10. I am looking for an upper-middle class area near or on the water. What is the best schools in the area? Looking for a NON-DIVERSE area and schools.

non-diverse areas? hmmm, is that code for what seems to be euphemistically called on city-data forums non-"spotty areas"?

i'm not sure where the all black waterfront areas are, if that is what you mean. ybor city perhaps? as to the all white non-diverse areas, according to city-data.com, you might try:

Indian Rocks Beach is a family oriented community. I think you will love it.

Belleair Shore is on the water. With a population of 51, I doubt there is much diversity.

Doesn't always buy you a better education. Be careful on what school you select to send your children to.

Unless you move to the country, you won't find non-diverse communities in Tampa or the nearby towns. Maybe you should look at other states.

Yes, please make sure you move to somewhere that your egotistical attitude fits in... would hate to see you at the PTA meetings of the minions at public school. fyi please just stay away from Pinellas where we all are poor and uneducated.

Can you blame someone for not wanting to live near some of the animals that are down there? I dont ...People want the best for their family and being neighbors with someone who is gonna be sitting on their porch listening to NWA and drinking 40oz. beers all night might night be a wise choice.
