Carver City and Lincoln Gardens both have ALWAYS been black neighborhoods in the City of Tampa. I'd say they are average or a little bit above average neighborhoods, kept up pretty well IMO.

Thank you for the information. I looked up the history. It will be hard not to find any City or County not named after old American history that I am not fond of.

Wow. revise an old thread to post 2 times just to race bait?
That "old American History" provided the name of Tampa, from the Indigenous Calusa Indian Tribe.
You are not fond of native Americans? You sound rather racist.

Another Sunny Day in Florida!

Did Carver City/Lincoln Gardens get gentrified in the three years after this comment was posted? I just did a real estate search for that neighborhood and it was mostly expensive new construction town homes.
