St. Petersburg (often referred to by locals as St. Pete) is a city in
Pinellas County, Florida.
The city is known as a vacation destination for North American and European vacationers, as well as a politically important battleground in U.S. Presidential politics and the home of the highly regarded St. Petersburg Times.
As of 2004, the population recorded by the U.S. Census Bureau is 249,090, making it the fourth largest city in the state of Florida. St. Petersburg is the second largest city in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater metropolitan area, which is composed of roughly 2.6 million residents, making it the second
largest Metropolitan Statistical Area in the state behind Miami-Fort
Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, and the third largest in the southeast.
The city is located on a peninsula between Tampa Bay and the Gulf of
Mexico. It is connected to the mainland to the north, connected with
the city of Tampa, Florida to the east by causeways and bridges
across Tampa Bay, and to Bradenton, Florida in the south by the
Sunshine Skyway Bridge (Interstate 275), which traverses the mouth of
the bay. It is also served by Interstates 175 and 375.
With a purported average of some 360 days of sunshine each year, it
is nicknamed "The Sunshine City." For that reason, the city is a
popular tourist and retirement destination, especially for those in
the United States from colder Northern climates.
