Seminole County Florida Homes

Have Rigler Realty sell your home in Seminole Florida.

This delightful community of nearly 13,000 people in Pinellas County on Central Florida’s west coast has become a haven for a growing number of newcomers to the Tampa Bay region. It offers a wonderful balance between the delights of sun, sea and the sense of endless vacation that characterizes many of the beach towns here, and the employment opportunities and services in the nearby commercial centers of St. Petersburg and Clearwater.

And real estate prices are lower than many of the better-known suburbs in the booming Tampa Bay metro area. But real estate bargains are only one of the reasons so many young families have moved here recently. Another is the proximity to the Gulf of Mexico’s best beaches. Although Madeira Beach, Treasure Island and other world-ranked barrier island beaches are only minutes away, Seminole, at 65-feet above sea level sits over the flood plain, offering the best of both worlds.

St Petersburg International Airport is a ten minute drive, as is the shopping, gourmet eating and excitement of downtown St. Petersburg, one of Florida’s major cities.

Well-served by quality local elementary, middle and high schools, the children of Seminole can continue their college education at a number of nearby, well-respected colleges and universities. The University of Tampa is 23 miles away and offers degree programs in nearly all of the major disciplines. Another option for Seminole residents is the nationally respected 27,000-student University of South Florida, under a half hour’s drive away. Students there can, apart from the comprehensive range of four-year degree programs, pursue post-graduate studies in various disciplines, including most of the medical sciences.

This is a great area for fishing, swimming, boating, sailing, snorkeling or just strolling the beach at sunset. It’s no wonder that Seminole residents and vacationers often center their leisure around, near, on, under or in one of the nearby waterways---The Gulf of Mexico, The Intracoastal Waterway, Seminole Lake and Tampa Bay----but land-lubbers are catered for here as well.

The Pinellas Trail offers paved pathways that take hikers, in-line skaters and cyclists nearly 50-miles north, up to the Nature Coast through unspoiled wilderness areas that will help you understand why those first Spanish explorers named this region Pescua Florida----place of flowers.

Seminole is part of the Pinellas County school system, with a program that allows students, in consultation with parents and administrators of a new school Choice Program, to select, from any school in the county, where they will attend class.

With 150,000 students, the Pinellas County School District is the 7th largest in the State of Florida and the 22nd largest in the country. With over 13,000 employees, Pinellas County Schools is also the largest employer in the County.

Seminole also offers easy access to the manufacturing centers of the Pinellas peninsular, and the high tech medical research and electronics manufacturing companies there. Pinellas County, often called the Clearwater/St. Petersburg region, has created nearly 33,000 new jobs in the previous 12 months alone to set the pace for the entire State.

You see, Pinellas County has the majority of the medical manufacturing industry segment in the Gulf Coast to Space Coast high tech corridor. A corridor many say is leading the world in many areas of medical instrumentation research and manufacture.
