On top of Clearwater Beach consistently ranking among the “Best Beaches in America,” the city of Clearwater has joined the ranks of the best places to live in America according to Livability.com!

 

Clearwater made the list at #76

Tampa made the list at #26

It has been a turbulent 24 months for both individuals and businesses. Many of the things that used to be a given about where we work and how we live suddenly became open-ended questions:

  • If a remote job allowed you to work anywhere, what factors would you consider most important when deciding where to relocate?
  • What monthly housing cost would you consider affordable?
  • How have your housing needs and priorities changed since the start of the pandemic?


These are some of the questions Livabilty.com considered when outlining their “Top 100 Places to Live in America,” article. Fortunately, the Tampa Bay Region has experienced immense growth with people relocating in flocks to the area, increased real estate investment, and continued innovation coming from our business community. 

 

The city of Clearwater has overhauled Downtown with blocked off streets for outdoor dining, outstanding art installations, farmers markets, and an assortment of initiatives aiming to develop themselves into a “playable city.” Additionally, Imagine Clearwater is redeveloping the waterfront with beautiful green spaces, an upgraded concert venue, and playgrounds.

As a thriving business community, the city of Clearwater stands out for the support it offers to entrepreneurs and small businesses to larger organizations looking for expansion opportunities.

 

Anyone looking to start a business in Downtown Clearwater can reach out to Howard Smith with the City’s Community Redevelopment Agency. Existing businesses in the city can connect with Stephanie Scalos. Businesses looking to relocate to Clearwater or want to discuss redevelopment opportunities can reach out to Phil Kirkpatrick.
