I lived in st pete 42 years, my whole life. I have seen it go from a little hide away beach town to a pretty bustling city now. This video is awesome. I love st pete and would never live any where. We have it all, food, beaches, night life, nature, sports just everything.

I moved here 2 years ago from the Mid West and it was the best decision I ever made. The sunny days are no exaggeration since its sunny all winter long.

[joegramlich]

Lived here for my first 18 years of life, I’m now in college in the Midwest and this video makes me realize how much I miss this place

[jameswiley]

I moved to St Petersburg 15 years ago and it truly is Paradise on Earth

[Mika-Saint-P]

It's amazing! I live in Russian St. Petersburg, which we call the "Northern Capital". It turns out that on the other side of the earth there is also a city with the same name. These two cities are both wonderful and interesting in their own way! Greetings from Russia)

[scottsstuff]

St Pete is such a cool city. When I tell my friends and family how great it is they just kind of look at me funny. It is really still a hidden gem and hope it stays that way!

[reginathornton]

God BLESS you, Saint Petersburg. I first visited in 1992 & said, "My heart is here." We moved here in 2004, survived the hurricanes & have made this our home. Been to every area & road in this video ❤

[greatmusicfan]

Lived there 35 years. Loved it back in the 80s and 90s. Just too bustling now. I am.in North Florida and I have I miss St. Pete days. Still beautiful, just too many people now.

[MrKvinR]

I JUST MOVED HERE IN NOV 2019– pre covid! I cannot tell you how much I love this

[vinsonmorgan]

Im born and raised here i love my city.

[TheRealBurgNerd]

Moved from NYC 3 years ago and will never live anywhere else. This city is dynamic and is booming. Can’t wait to see how it looks in 10 years. Gorgeous city!

[ObeyJesusOurLord]

With so many comments, you may never see mine but just in wanted to say how much respect I have for you that at the end of this video you gave God credit for all this beautiful creation. May our Lord Jesus bless you & watch over you & your family always.

I was the first baby born on Christmas day at St. Anthony's hospital 1965 ..Made it into the St. Petersburg up off 22nd Ave North .... St. Petersburg is the best place to get salt water taffy to this day. Going to the Beach digging your hands into the wet sand feeling live Coquina"s dig themselves back into the wet sand...Good Times.. Using the Don Cesar as a focal point, to find your way back to your towel after hours of swimming.. out to beautiful sand bars.. I am truly a St Petersburg Floridian ..forever !....

[kellycarter]

I lived there for 23 years worked at John Hopkins All Children's Hospital for 17 years. Then moved in 2015. I miss it every day.

[cybellaRob]

Great video. You did a superb job! I was stationed there from 1984-88 in the Coast Guard. So much has changed since then but it definitely brought back a lot of great memories. Thank you. 👍

[beachydayz]

One of my all time favourites in Florida. Have been going to St.Petes for years, beach side and downtown. Earlier this year stayed downtown at the Hilton and walked everywhere. Very special holiday with my brother. Love ❤️ it. Thank you for sharing

[trusted_traveler]

I was born here, didn't get the choice as a child to stay but ended up moving to New England, but this year I'm moving "home" I don't want it to be a visit anymore. St Pete is heaven on Earth

[triciaphillips]

Wish living in St. Pete was as beautiful as this video makes it appear to be. Lovely video.

[suburbanocarioca]

I'm Brazilian, just waiting for open the borders to back to this amazing place I love

[hildianabofill]
