The pattern here is a growth/income tradeoff. The city's biggest ZIP by far — 33647 (New Tampa, ~75k people, $114k median income) — is the growth laggard, essentially flat at -0.3% . Money isn't moving there anymore; it's moving into the working- and middle-income corridors: 33604 (Seminole Heights/Sulphur Springs, $66k income) is growing income fastest at +5.5% , and 33612 (USF/Terrace Park area, $53k income) is right behind at +4.0% — both comfortably above the national pace. Wealthy 33629 (South Tampa, $172k income, the highest-income ZIP on this list) is barely moving at +0.1% , which is typical of already-high-income areas with less room to compound.
Bottom line: if you're underwriting for rent growth runway, 33604 and 33612 are the ZIPs where household income is actually accelerating — that's where rent-to-income compression is easing, not tightening. 33647 and 33629, despite being the largest and richest ZIPs respectively, are the ones to watch for stalling income support under existing rent levels.
