When buyers relocate to a metro area where they have no local ties, the usual priorities – square footage, lot size, finishes – often take a back seat to something harder to measure: a built-in social life. In the suburbs east and south of Tampa, communities with shared amenities like pools, splash pads, and lakefront ...
