"Dog owners would like it other dog owners pick up their dogs poop. Also don't leave your dogs outside unattended and allow it to non stop bark. Some people actually work from home and it's disruptive."

"There are so many friendly people walking their dogs on a daily basis in the neighborhood. There could always be a little more sidewalks but we currently have a lot and nice dog parks with great local pet stores. "

"I feel right at home, the mix of cultures is definitely what Tampa is all about. Things are definitely changing around here but, it seems to be for the better, other then the clear and obvious gentrification."

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI really hate this school. I don't feel as my child is learning properly and the teachers act as if they care about the grade and not their learning. It really sucks to know that my child is not getting what she needs.Parent Review11y ago6 Reviews - Hillsborough High School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHonestly, this is probably one of the worst schools. I knew a girl that got chased by a group of boys and were taking pictures of her, basically harassing her even as she told them multiple times VERY NICELY that she was already dating someone and rejected the boys on four seperate days. The boys also contacted one of her friends and started spamming her with calls and texts talking about how they "loved and hated" the other girl. She later took it to the principal and instead of doing anything they changed the subject to her outfit and how she was dressed inappropriately (it was school dress code, she had a jacket on that was not fitting, shorts, with legging underneath the shorts.) There has been no action taken or even any conformation they would do something about it. They preach "if you see something say something, but do nothing to protect their students.Student Review6mo ago10 Reviews - Seminole Elementary School
