Apartments for Rent near Cromwell Heights, St. Petersburg, FL

Diversity defines this resurgent area where the Childs Park Community Garden's 50 plots host international veggie varieties. Renters enjoy affordable bungalows but note sparse grocery options beyond corner stores.

Waterfront accessibility without premium pricing distinguishes Shore Acres, where this northeastern St. Petersburg neighborhood borders Tampa Bay creating opportunities for water views. Rental homes include a mix of mid-century designs and newer construction, often featuring Florida-essential outdoor living spaces. The area provides excellent access to both downtown St. Petersburg and Coffee Pot Bayou recreation, though hurricane evacuation orders affect this zone during serious storm threats.

Authentic affordability with central positioning makes Disston Heights stand out among St. Petersburg neighborhoods. Located just minutes from downtown, the area features Florida mid-century homes and garden apartments at rental rates substantially below downtown or waterfront districts. The established neighborhood offers excellent access to both downtown amenities and Gulf Beaches without corresponding premium pricing. While lacking the waterfront prestige of eastern neighborhoods and commercial corridors remain in development, Disston Heights compensates with significantly more living space for your rental dollar and balanced positioning increasingly valued as St. Petersburg traffic intensifies during tourist seasons. Well-suited for practical renters who prioritize value and central convenience over water views or maximum walkability.
