Roser Park, Bartlett Park and Childs Park in the South St. Petersburg redevelopment area

South St. Pete is the one area here that follows a City line: the South St. Petersburg Community Redevelopment Area south of Central Avenue, 33,124 residents in 2020. Roser Park, on Booker Creek just south of downtown, is the smallest neighborhood on this list, 627 residents on 86 acres, kept because it is the city's best-known early suburb and both of its historic districts are inside it. Bartlett Park, around the park of that name south of Interstate 175 and west of 4th Street South, is 2,217 residents once the 210 also inside Roser Park's line are counted there instead, with the Frank Pierce Recreation Center and the Bartlett Park Community Resource Center. Childs Park, west of 34th Street South, is 6,518 residents, every one inside the redevelopment area, with Childs Park and its lake, recreation center and library, and Fairmount Park Elementary; Gibbs High School is just east of its line and Gulfport, a separate city, just west. All three are neighborhoods named after the parks inside them, and the guides say which one they mean. 3 guides are listed below.

A redevelopment area captures the growth in tax revenue inside its line for reinvestment there, and it adds no rate: the levies on a South St. Pete bill are the same as anywhere else in the city. What is particular is Roser Park's review: its 92 residents in the City's local historic district need the City's certificate of appropriateness for exterior work, while the 298 in its National Register district face no City review from that listing alone. Helene's surge reached into Bartlett Park, where the City assessed 71 parcels afterward, 47 with major damage and 66 with water inside, and 1,030 of Bartlett Park's residents are inside the City's Disaster Risk Reduction Areas, a layer the City publishes without saying what it governs. Childs Park recorded no Helene water, and 115 parcels were assessed there after Milton. A Florida homeowners policy covers wind and not rising water, so FEMA's flood map for the exact address, the elevation certificate, the seller's disclosure of past flooding and a quote for a separate flood policy belong in any offer here.
