Amen to that! People drive way too close to each other. I've see too many times 3, 4, 5 cars driving 75 mph and just a few feet away from each other. Do you they think they can react fast enough if something were to happen? Do they think they are getting to their destination any faster by driving so close? It is probably the number 1 reason why there are so many accidents. I lived in NYC/NJ and did not see so many people driving so close to each other. This area has a lot more accidents.

Seven oaks is wayyy to far.
Hunter's green's i feel is already far from campus. (if you look on a google map of the area you'll see the relative distance of where everything is.) At least with hunter's green the exit for i75 is less than 2 min away. the shops at wiregrass is a 15 min drive away.
It's a new mall so new that the road isn't even finished being built because it would lead to no where.

Seven Oaks would be 20 minutes without traffic beside the fact that college students may want an area with more going on.

Mapquest came back with 15 min...but it depends where on USF which of course is a very big place....

Most important is that the area in Wesley Chapel is way moe safe.

Thursday, March 26, 2009HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY (Bay News 9) -- Tampa police officers and Hillsborough County deputies knocked on doors in the north Tampa and the USF area Thursday morning.

Their job: to look for more than 100 people, including many violent felons, with warrants out for their arrests.

The action, which also included a crackdown on prostitution and drugs, is called Operation Spring Cleaning.
Search on for 100 people with warrants in Hillsborough - Bay News 9 (http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:rkbRw1g7phwJ:www.baynews9.com/content/36/2009/3/26/453188.html+police+tampa+100+warrants&cd=1&hl=en&c t=clnk&gl=us - broken link)

Sorry to bump this thread, but I was re-reading it and saw someone mentioned having an "apartment agency" show me around. Does this sort of thing exist? Can anyone give me more details on this? Thanks

I recently checked the area I told them to go, but it no longer exists. We were moved down here by my husbands company. They had realtors who showed us homes for sale. Then they had an agency that dealt just with rentals. I don't know if they exist any longer.
