Brandon is where I basically grew up, from High School to adulthood, its the 'city within a city' of Tampa. Just close enough to Downtown without being lost in the concrete jungle. I would say Brandon is mostly family oriented, with more than enough shopping, eateries and municipal than anyone could need. Every major chain as well as some of the best developed mom and pop places, you can find it all. The main strip, Highway 60 AKA Brandon Blvd AKA Adamo Drive, is easy to traverse from East to West and vice versa, within a 20 minute span of time. Give or take on the time of day! It also leads directly into the heart of Tampa Bay or go further into Clearwater or St. Pete!
If you are looking for a well established place to start a family, or retire to, this would be it. Though it has been established for quite awhile, it has grown by leaps and bounds over the past 30 years. Definitely not behind the times! There is also plenty of access to what the general Tampa area has to offer.

Love the weather and people! Although there can be some bad apples they are all really nice. Also, there is a lot of things to do. The schools in this area are really amazing because they giving you a lot of opportunities to further your future. Great colleges in the area! Housing in the area is extremely nice. There are plenty of job opportunities. Customer service is always great especially at Chick-Fil-a! Hope you visit! Thank you for considering.
Brandon is a very nice area to live in! The schools around here are really good. Schmidt Elementary School has a really good Special Needs program, as my sister is in it, and she is doing really well! Although Brandon is small, there are a lot of places to go to, whether you're hungry, want to do shopping, have fun, or just hang out. The people here are nice, too! I would recommend Brandon, especially if you are moving into the Tampa Bay Area!
