MacDill Air Force Base…One of the Largest Employers in the Tampa Real Estate Market
The latest news on Tampa Real Estate, Moving to Tampa, and Living in Tampa, every day, on The Real Estate Sizzle…
Tampa is home to MacDill Air Force Base, which includes Central Command, Centcom and SoCom. The entire Tampa Bay area is filled with military families from all branches, as well as civilians who are employed as military consultants.
Every year I relocate many families, both military and civilian, who are moving to Tampa for positions at MacDill AFB.
In the Tampa Real Estate Market, there are many neighborhood choices for military families. What is the best neighborhood? Families with children are often on a budget and need a combination
of larger homes, good school districts and reasonable prices. Most families don’t want to commute more than 30 40 minutes to get to MacDill AFB, so that narrows their focus to Westchase, New Tampa or the Brandon, Valrico, Riverview areas.
For those with smaller families, singles, or couples, they may want to live close to the base in South Tampa. Housing prices are higher, but offer many options with condos, townhomes and single-family homes in historic neighborhoods. Living in South Tampa keeps them close to the base, as well as downtown Tampa, and just minutes to the airport, and the neighborhoods include some of the top-rated schools in the U.S. Whatever your housing needs are in Tampa, I can help find the perfect home for you!
You can read some of my previous articles on Tampa Neighborhoods:
Palma Ceia…the “Plant High School” neighborhood
Hyde Park..a historic neighborhood in the Tampa Real Estate Market
If you are taking an assignment at MacDill AFB, or searching for Tampa Real Estate, I can help with your move to any Tampa neighborhood, including: South Tampa, Davis Islands, Beach Park, Sunset Park, Hyde Park, Culbreath Isles, Palma Ceia, Westchase, Waterchase, Odessa, Cheval, Avila, Brandon, Riverview, FishHawk, New Tampa, Tampa Palms, Hunters Green, Arbor Greene, Apollo Beach, South Shore, MiraBay, Golf Communities, Waterfront Homes, Luxury Homes in Tampa, Condos in Tampa and International Real Estate contact me!

My brother-in-law was stationed at McDill and he and my sister bought a home there. They were lucky that they sold before the market headed south. I have a client with NOAA at McDill waiting to buy here in Austin, but he is sitting until the market recovers.
