What to do in downtown St. Petersburg? 

The downtown core is filled to the brim with shops, galleries, museums, restaurants and bars. The area is made up of various districts, such as the Edge District and Waterfront Arts District, each having its own distinct characteristics. 

What sports teams are there in St. Petersburg?

The Firestone Grand Prix, part of the IndyCar circuit, is also held in St. Petersburg, much to the delight of racing fans. 

 

What to know about renting in St. Petersburg?  

Before renting in St. Petersburg, make sure you read through your lease agreements to understand all clauses. Despite oral agreements being legal here, it’s highly advisable that you get everything down in writing. According to local rental regulations, the landlord is legally able to increase rent as much as they wish once the lease period ends. Before you go, however, they must give you written notice so you can decide whether you wish to stay or leave. Keeping the structure in good repair and exterminating pests and insects are some of the main obligations of the landlord. If this does not happen, you can legally withhold rent. But, you’re required to send a written notification by certified mail seven days before the rent is due. This gives the landlord the opportunity to make necessary changes.
