I lived in Tampa for three years and I used to feel the same way but its only because so didn't appreciate the quaintness of it, if that makes sense, making Tampa more "city like" would just turn it ink another Miami Metro and then what would be left? Orlando. Tampa needs to stay safe the way it is, safe, family friendly and medium sized, otherwise families and retirees wouldn't want to come here they'll leave for Naples and Orlando suburbs, if you want a large city feel just move to Fort Lauderdale, that's way more LA than even LA can get, since Los Angeles is so sprawling it takes 20 minutes to get anywhere, but In Miami you really get that big city feel, rude drivers, crazy crimes. Anyone looking for the big city feel can just go down to Fort Lauderdale it's only three hours from Tampa but Tampa doesn't need to turn into another LA or Miami its perfect
