Our headquarters is in Riverview, Florida. That is not a coincidence. When Gary Thacker founded Brothers Easy Moving of Tampa in 2010, he chose Riverview because he knew the area and believed in it. Over the years we have helped thousands of families move into Riverview homes, and we hear the same reasons over and over for why people pick this community.
Why Do So Many Families Choose to Move to Riverview?
Riverview has been recognized by CNNMoney as one of the top small cities to live in, and the reasons are practical ones. The school system performs well and graduation rates are high. The crime rate is relatively low, which matters a great deal to families with children. The area keeps growing, but it has held onto a neighborhood feel that larger cities tend to lose.
There are restaurants, bowling alleys, parks, and golf courses nearby. Residents still know their neighbors. That combination is harder to find than people expect.
How Close Is Riverview to Tampa and Other Attractions?
Riverview sits close enough to Tampa that day trips to Busch Gardens, Buccaneers games, and other major attractions are genuinely easy. You get the quiet of a smaller community without giving up access to a major metro area. That proximity is one of the things people mention most when we ask why they chose Riverview over other parts of the region.
What Does the Cost of Living Actually Look Like?
The numbers here are worth knowing before you decide. The median household income in Riverview exceeds the national figure by twenty four percent, and the poverty rate is an equal percentage below the national average. The cost of living runs two percent below the Florida average and one percent below the national average. Home prices reflect that. In some cases it is more economical to buy in Riverview than to rent, which draws a lot of buyers who might otherwise have stayed in higher-cost areas.
What About the Weather?
Average temperatures in Riverview range from sixty two to eighty three degrees. That is the honest version of why people keep relocating to Florida in general. Winters that do not require a snow shovel carry real weight when someone is deciding where to put down roots.
