#TAMPAFLORIDALIVING
I purchased a home in riverview last year and I’m loving it. Traffic here is insane like it’s everywhere else mentioned on the video, but if you work from home like we do, it’s a not a big deal.
Yo please tell me what the car scene is like. I’m from the DMV area and own the DMV mr2 group here. Wanting to know if the community there is as friendly👀
There are tons of car meetups and car shows. The riverwalk has a car show practically every month. I’m not that deep into cars, but growing up I had a bunch of friends that either restored them or raced them… we have both here lol
When we moved here in 2014 access to MacDill AFB was important so we went with Riverview. We did look at Wesley Chapel and it's very nice up there, but was a little more expensive. The amenities are great and it is very self contained. You're points are spot on and I love that we can get to a Lightning game in 20 minutes, the airport in 40 minutes and any of the beaches in an hour.
Thank you for sharing! And yes location is great
I live in Wesley Chapel and the population is exploding. Traffic is horrendous. They have been tearing down beautiful woodland areas and building numerous subdivisions. condos, and apartments, as well as commercial buildings. This used to be a very pretty area but not so much anymore. It's quickly losing its rural feel. If you left this place 15 years ago and came back to see it today, you would not recognize it. It's been so built up and continues to be.
I feel your pain, I have lived here for 30 years. Wesley Chapel is turning into a hell hole. All these people need to move back to the states they came from. They voted in liberial idots and ruined their state. Now they are moving here and bringing their stupid ideas with them. GO HOME!!!
The worst thing is the drivers and lack of police ..You literally take your life in your hand just driving to Publix!
Moved to Riverview in 2005 and it was mainly farms and the traffic was decent. My good friend moved to Wesley Chapel and it was the same thing. Riverview has expended so much and the traffic is horrible in the am and pm. Getting to and off 75 is the worst during these times. The difference is in Riverview you have many options and things to do and easier access to the beach. Wesley Chapel is still expanding and will be like Riverview in the coming years.
Thanks for sharing your insight. Wesley chapel does have a lot to do and getting into Tampa is not that bad. I will agree beaches are a bit further
I have no clue how I came across your video but I’m happy I did . I’ve been debating on moving too Tampa from St. Louis hopefully your channel will help . Dope video bro
I appreciate that! If you need help with purchasing a home shoot us an email and we can help you through the process:

@@TampaFloridaLiving thanks I’ll keep you all in mind I’m in the process of rebuilding my credit . I’m definitely looking to get A home within the next year .
@@tucansam3147 sounds great
Both areas traffic is horrendous but if I had to pick one I would definitely take Wesley Chapel over Riverview
Stay out of riverview, wasn't bad 2 years ago when I moved here but now the traffic is so bad and they are building shit everywhere so gonna get way worse I am considering moving but that's probably not an option with home prices
Prices to rent here in Wesley chapel are insane . We are waiting on a build currently far away from this place I recommend anyone else do the same
Moved to Wesley chapel in 2004. It was like a small town back then. Now it’s become a city and although it is a great place to live the traffic is horrendous. Especially since Tampa Premium Outlets mall was built.
A city ? I came from NYC 4 years ago and Wesley chapel is far from a city.
@@chrisvalentin4826 👍🏾
I moved to Zephyrhills because it's right next to Wesley Chapel at about 20% lower cost! The extra drive is worth it.
Agreed things Are spreading that way! Thanks for sharing
My first time on your channel and WOW, what a DOPE REALTOR ANDDD BROADCASTER YOU ARE!!! Thank you for such matter of fact details and info! As a veteran stability is KEY.. you did a great job delivering juust what I needed!! One day.. WE’RE COLLABORATING 🙏🏾 Stay up king! 🌴☀️🎙
I appreciate the comments and best to you as well!!!
moving to riverview in 3 months can’t wait
Love it… congrats!!!
Hey do you still love it there?
A video on Lakeland would be appreciated! A friend of mine is inquiring about Lakeland
I cover Lakeland, but rarely sell out there as it is a ways off of Tampa. We mainly focus on hillsborough, pasco and pinellas counties. We do also go into Sarasota and north of pasco at times, but rarely to Lakeland.
Lakeland is a area with alot of tampa/Orlando commuters too. it gets glossed over a bunch because its 45 minutes away.
@@TampaFloridaLiving if any of my friends consider buying in the Tampa Bay Area, your videos are the best!
@@mendezweightloss I appreciate that! I’m happy to help them too!!!
Moved down in 2005 and could have picked WC/New Tampa but chose Zephyrhills, got more for my money and way less property taxes. But now traffic is absolutely insane! I'm right on the border of WC and developments are popping up everywhere. Home values took quite a while to go up but now are up there. Thinking about moving to an over 55 community but I can't see any savings in doing so.
Yeah WC is spreading fast. If you need help with anything in the future please reach out and we are happy to help!
I live in Wesley Chapel I moved in 2012 and I pay 165 for my new home . now the home got up and traffic in the area is crazy. Wesley chapel is nice, everything is new, good schools . Easy access to Tampa
I appreciate your input!
Such a great video!! Can't wait to check out both areas in a couple of weeks when we come down there!
Thanks Karlie! See you soon!!!
We just bought a hoise in wimauma (right next to riverview) and we love it! Such a nice area
Thanks for sharing
in general your comparisons are accurate, however i think your traffic assessment and drive times from each area to either tampa or the beaches are waaaaay off. the difference is huge with traffic. wesley chapel to tampa can be as much as an hour, while from riverview its only 30 minutes. east and south hillsborough county has much better access than pasco county.
Tim I appreciate your comments. I drove both areas for a living while showing homes and at different times it can definitely vary. With both areas being close to interstate access helps drive times also. From wiregrass mall to armature works it took 24 minutes May 2pm weekday. I had 3 routes and all under 30 minutes.
I’m a licensed plumber working service in all these areas on a daily basis. Nice places to live and work
Thank you for your comments and insight
idk but the traffic in riverview is absolutely terrible right now. if you getting on i75 off of big ben rd, you might as well pitch a tent
I'm looking at Wesley Chapel area, I'm a 100% remote. The traffic is still not as bad as DC.
I’d love to help you find a home if you don’t already have a realtor! If you need help shoot us an email: info@themorejongroup.com
@@TampaFloridaLiving I'm looking for a duplex to quadplex before I purchase a home
@@dp23938 so is everyone else lol. Email me the specifics and we can try to help.
@@TampaFloridaLiving just sent an email.
@@dp23938 already replied!
would love for you to cover the Parrish and Ruskin areas.
Visit my channel as I did cover parish
I was going to move to Wesley Chapel/ Zephyrhills but I didn't see any diversity there in school and all I saw was cow, cow houses cow lol. I know those 2 area will be definitely growing. It is absolutely beautiful though. I am now in process looking at Riverview moving to Riverview school also is not all the diverse either. I really hope I don't regret Tampa moving here.
Tampa is great and there is diversity everywhere. Clearly the city is the most diverse but you won’t have any issues… or at least shouldn’t. If you need help please let us know as we have a great team ready to help! You can also search homes on our websites: www.TampaFLLiving.com
@@TampaFloridaLiving Thank you for taking the time out to reply back. Definitely will keep you in mind.
Wesley Chapel is very diverse. I've lived here for 6 years. My son graduated from Wesley Chapel High School. His school was very diverse. Hope this helps 😊
@@smiley007cane3 it’s my pleasure
@@staceykimble2178 agreed and Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the insight on the areas been looking to purchase a home in the Tampa area .We seem to be having a hard time we have put in offers and always get out bided.We are in a program from our credit union called members on the move was wondering if you were involved in that program
Thanks for the comments. Yes it’s definitely a tough market right now. And no I’m sorry I have not heard of that program.
Both areas are nice, but WC in general is much newer, with far fewer crimes occurring as well. Brandon is closer to most of the attractions in Tampa, though. Both areas have similar amenities though as far as bars and restaurants, though I'd give the edge to WC because of the heavy expansion in the past few years. Also, WC isn't even in Hillsborough County, that's Pasco's land, so you might actually save money in that regard, living in a much smaller county.
Fair assessment. Thanks
Can you post an updated video to this?
Sure
I live at Charlestown landings (yeah you know) lol literally next to mall. And Walmart which I do love, but the traffic. Is INSANE. Very accident prone kinda dangerous. You have to have practice to drive around brandon.
I live in Wesley chapel Florida and i love it.
One of my favorite suburbs!!! Thank you for sharing your experience!
My man, let me know if you need a photographer for your properties. We are located in Wesley Chapel. Tampa Bay Drone Solutions
Shoot me an email I’ll reach out.

I live in and love Wesley Chapel
Love that you shared that!!!
Lots of traffic but tons of stores everywhere
Thank you so much 😊
No doubt Riverview/Ruskin area over wesley Chapel. Way more less congested routes to the area including 618. Easier access to the beaches over wesley chapel. Less expensive and Lot more to do in Riverview Area over wesley chapel. Easy access to down town and TPA with option of toll over wesley with only congested 75 available.
I'd love a video of Wimauma!
Me too !
My ex boss moved there!
Sounds good! I’ll make sure to put that in future plans. Soon I will be back on the ground showing communities and areas again. I try to keep a good mix of things!
@@TampaFloridaLiving thank you!
@@phillymikea my pleasure.
Please make a video about Seffner Fl is it good place to live
It’s a tad more rural but located just off the interstate
@@TampaFloridaLiving Wow Thank you for the fast reply. Want more info why the home price are higher, anyway Thank you so much 😊
@@lukes251671 easy people can choose where they live based on remote working and they are willing to pay more.
I live in Wesley chapel❤️✌🏼
Awesome!!! How do you like it?
And thanks for commenting on our channel!
@@TampaFloridaLiving I love to live in Wesley chapel since 2005 !!! Very good video!!!
@@odapty thanks for sharing and thank you for the compliment!
It's overcrowded but an awesome area.
The Disney store was closed in the outlets 😭😭😭😢😿
Oh no I missed that when I was there a few months back. Thank you for the update. Now I can take my kids back there shopping without losing my savings lol
I live in Wesley chapel I love it
Thank you for sharing! It’s pretty sweet!
I missed the lottery for winding ridge by 2 names 🥺 wish me luck on the next one
Good luck. If you need help moving forward let us know!
GL builds amazing homes! What model are you building? Thanks!
@@Twobarpsi the Diana model
Excellent pros and cons!
Thanks. As always appreciate the comments!
Wesley Chapel has plan when they built, that's why roads are wide and plenty of shopping around. I hate Riverview or Brandon areas~ roads are narrow, always congested, lacking of shopping except Brandon which is a one way in and out nightmare. I don't go to those areas at all.
I live in Riverview we are wayyytt OVER CROWDED!!! Don’t move here! 301 is a MESS
bro, you should make the videos in Spanish also, you could get mas gente, me entiendes papa?
How about Carrollwood Village?
It’s one of my favorite communities
@@TampaFloridaLiving 4+ bedroom homes are going for upward of $750k….but they are beautiful mature executive style homes on very large lots
@@jazzyflorida3757 I just closed on a nice one for around $660k. And yes I’m a fan of carrollwood
The problems is the schools isn’t it? And that’s of most importance (with Riverview I mean)
There are also private school options and charter schools in case you want other options than the local public schools.
I’m moving to Palmetto
Let us know if you need help with your move! Saw your last comment that you currently live in riverview
Perhaps change the title to Tampa Bay metro area because these places aren't in Tampa.
Your right it’s not in the city of Tampa but my channel is about Tampa and the surrounding areas! Some work in the city and live in the suburbs (unincorporated areas) so it helps everyone understand the areas!
The best place is to head north on i75 and drive a minimum of 500 miles and take a friend. All these people moving here has ruined Florida
Do SEFFNER
Been living in the Wesley chapel area since the 80’s so PLEASE move anywhere else!!!
Uhhmmm i live in riverview. Its closed. Not open for anymore people!! We dont have the infastructure to support all the new people. Its now taking 45min-1hr to go less that 9 miles!! Been here 8 yrs, we used to have farm/pasture land and now its all storage units, dentists or publix.
I appreciate your comments. However eight years ago when the Brandon Riverview area was booming people that lived there were saying the same exact thing you’re saying now.
@@TampaFloridaLiving thats not good. So it likely will never get fixed. Well i guess add that to yet another reason i want out of florida
@@maryscott9430 they are currently widening the interstate system but of course that takes time. Tampa is a growing city so things will most likely stay busy.
@@TampaFloridaLiving i know. Wich is why i want to move
@@maryscott9430 I’m sorry to hear that but I do understand. If you own a home and make that decision one day to sell, I’d love to help you with that. Shoot us an email anytime! Info@themorejongroup.com

Live as far away from the water (bay or gulf) as possible... They're looking into whether there is cognitive decline after being exposed to red tide. It's messed me up, I don't think it's a temporary thing.
Sir, the statement of Wesley Chapel being 30 minutes from Tampa is false. I have lived in this area my whole life and made that drive many hundreds of times. The drive is no less than 1 hour and likely much longer with the multiple auto accidents that occur every few hours on that interstate.
I appreciate your comments. I drive these roads all the time for a living. I just got directions from google maps from Florida Ave brewery in Wesley chapel to armature works in the city. 3 different options under 30 minutes! All good though!
In fact it’s currently 24 minutes
It depends on where in Tampa you go. I live in Wesley chapel and work in Tampa. The first exit in Tampa is bearss and that takes about 15 minutes. The deeper in Tampa you go obviously the longer it takes.
Wesley Chapel, Brandon, Riverview IS NOT Tampa
You are correct. My channel is about living in and around Tampa. They are considered the suburbs around tampa
Neither are Tampa..they are part of unincorporated Hillsborough County.
That’s right. But when describing areas to people it’s easiest understood as suburbs to Tampa or suburbs near Tampa.
None it's over priced lol
Stop telling people how nice hillsborough county is. Send them somewhere else
Soooooo you agree it’s nice! Lol
@@TampaFloridaLiving it is. I grew up in this county.
There are too many people moving to Wesley Chapel making the traffic horrendous. Send these people elsewhere.
New exit is opening at overpass road which will help redirect some traffic . Wesley chapel is a commenter suburb… a lot of people coming and going for work. It also is one of the best suburbs with the Amt of amenities so it attracts a lot of people from the surrounding suburbs. It’s not only the people living there. Wesley chapel is a great place to live and while it has exploded with its growth, that’s also what makes it a great suburb to live in or near. You don’t need to go into the city for things.
Just don’t see the traffic changing because they keep attracting people from all over.
@@TampaFloridaLiving You obviously do not live here because if you did, you'd realize these people cannot drive. I have seen as many as 6 accidents in a single day in & around Wesley Chapel Blvd and Bruce B Downs.
@@davidhalley937 ha ha ha. I am not laughing at the accidents, but I actually was rear ended last year in Wesley chapel. It is busy and I’m not downplaying it. Just saying it’s an active area with a lot to offer which is why so many people are attracted to living there. Many of the other suburbs have your basic needs but not much else and you have to drive for a nice variety.
Amen brother, Send them back where they came from.
As someone who was raised here I wish people would stop moving over here. You're causing everything to go up in price. There are historical landmarks being torn down to make cheap condos which will be way overpriced.
I hear you. I am from here as well and it is sad to some degree how much prices have increased and how our little town feel is now becoming an actual city, but in all fairness this is happening everywhere. Tampa has flown under the radar for so long and while I do love the small town feel, I am excited for the direction the city is headed and our newer attractions and amenities. Where we lose some amazing things we also gain another. Its just different and different is not always bad.
Neither of those places is in Tampa.
You are correct… they are the suburbs surrounding Tampa. Thanks for the comment
Brandon sucks! Nightmare traffic and rather dirty…not even comparable with upscale Wesley Chapel…you can make shit look like gold dude…Riverview is Brandon 2.0…
STOP moving to pasco used to be so peaceful and friendly now 500k people it seems like. Stay away I miss NY hometown of Land O Lakes.....stay away
Where should people move to as the city expands?
@@TampaFloridaLiving within the city where they work not causing traffic and accidents by moving to Land O Lakes where they don't care. Nobody contributes to Pasco, the roads are crap etc however they still keep moving here living inches from each other for 500k. Part of living is being relaxed and comfortable. If ya work in Tampa live in Tampa
@@umkane3851 I hear you, but there is no more room to build on vacant land in Tampa. We have been way behind on homes for the amount of people living here for years. We have also been very affordable and while I agree prices are getting up there, it’s still comparable to many cities around the country. Eventually as the city and surrounding areas grow it has to expand outwards and yes things will change. I grew up in the city and on 14 acres in fade city (split family) and it was great we just knew we had to drive to get that space. I know it’s not perfect for new construction communities to come in and build on nice open pastures, but as the population increases… it’s the inevitable. In the 70’s that was carrollwood then in the 90’s lutz and Brandon/riverview and now it’s moving further north and southeast. It will continue into San Antonio and keep growing through the decades
