I live in South Tampa and my office is actually on South Howard, so I can say with confidence that the chicks are hot.
The pros:
-The women are hot and easy.
-Fitness is huge around here. I see hot chicks running along Bayshore on my way to work every morning, as well as at the gym. It's almost as if there aren't ugly girls in this part of the city at all.
-Lots of tight young chicks like you mentioned frequenting the bars.
-Lots of hot surgically-enhanced milfs just about everywhere. There are a ton at my gym, and they're either divorced or looking for something young on the side.
-Property values have hit bottom and are on the way up, especially on condos like the one you're looking at. They're building so many new condo/apartment buildings, and people want to rent rather than buy here, so there's money to be made. I'm just now getting into this racket but it I know people who make great money doing that here and in St. Pete.
-Gasparilla - basically Tampa's Mardi Gras, it's a huge pirate street festival and parade. Best day gaming ever; every girl is drunk, and has a thing for pirates. I got a blowjob on a balcony while throwing beads last year just because I was in costume.
-You have the beach, the Hard Rock casino and Disney World/other theme parks not too far away.
-Most everything is within walking distance, so if you lived right off of Howard you could get to the bars very easily like you're planning to.
The cons:
-There's a definite party culture here, and not in a good way. Bars on Howard become packed and loud every night, especially on weekends, which actually makes it pretty terrible for night game. I've never been big into the loud, obnoxious I-can't-hear-myself-think bar scene anyway, so I tend not to stay out later than 8 or 9.
-Driving on Howard is ridiculous during the times that anyone would be at the bars. I try not to drive on it after 6, if I drive at all.
-Most of the women are vapid sluts, and most of the men are dumb meatheads. The (true) stereotype is that "SoHos" are still drinking every night using daddy's money after college, and the meathead STDs (South Tampa Douchebags) are the kind of guys that they go for. Not a problem if you want a quick bang, but I can't handle having any type of regular thing/fuck buddy arrangement with those kinds of women here.
If you have any more questions about SoHo I can definitely answer them. I like it here, but it's not the best place I've ever lived. That said, I would still come back for Gasparilla every year.
