Living in the Gorrie Elementary zone
The Gorrie Elementary zone sits in South Tampa, one of the city's most established and centrally located areas. You're within easy reach of downtown — roughly a nine-minute drive — yet the feel is residential, with tree-lined streets and a mix of traditional homes and newer construction. It's a part of Tampa where neighborhood identity and school zone matter a great deal to buyers.
This zone suits families who want to be close to the city without giving up a true neighborhood lifestyle, as well as professionals drawn to the short commute to downtown and the airport. The housing stock ranges from classic bungalows to fully renovated homes and modern new builds. With 19 waterfront and 23 pool listings currently active, there's also appeal for buyers wanting outdoor and water access.
Because it's a premium, well-known area, you're buying into a community with strong demand and a wide price range. The active inventory spans from around $197,000 to nearly $20 million, reflecting everything from condos to high-end waterfront estates. That diversity means the zone works for a range of buyers, even if the median leans upscale.
Schools for homes in the Gorrie Elementary zone
The zone is named for Gorrie Elementary, and the broader area feeds into a set of Hillsborough County schools that families research closely. Among the schools associated with this part of South Tampa are Madison Middle School and Plant High School, the latter a major draw for buyers choosing this attendance area.
The area is also home to partnership and magnet-style programs, including the Usf/Patel Partnership Elementary School and the Patricia Sullivan Metropolitan Ministries Partnership School, which add variety to the educational options in and around the zone.
Attendance boundaries in Hillsborough County can and do change from year to year. If a specific school assignment is central to your decision, confirm the exact zone for any address directly with Hillsborough County Public Schools before you make an offer.

Getting around from the Gorrie Elementary zone
Location is a defining advantage of this zone. Downtown Tampa is roughly a nine-minute drive, putting the city's employment, dining, and entertainment within quick reach. Tampa International Airport is about 21 minutes away, which is a genuine convenience for frequent travelers.
South Tampa's established grid and major north-south and east-west corridors make everyday trips straightforward, whether you're heading downtown, to the airport, or across the bay. The central position means you spend less time commuting than you would from Tampa's outer suburbs.
For buyers who prioritize a short commute and easy access to the city core, this zone delivers that without sacrificing a residential setting. It's a practical choice for professionals and families who value time as much as space.
Is the Gorrie Elementary zone a good fit?
This zone is a strong fit if you want a central South Tampa address with a well-regarded school assignment and quick access to downtown and the airport. The appeal is clear: a residential, established area that still keeps you minutes from the city. Buyers who value location, walkable neighborhoods, and a recognizable school zone tend to gravitate here.
The main trade-off is price. With a median list around $797,450 and 43 listings above $1 million, this is a premium market, and the roughly $576 per square foot average means you often pay for location and lot more than square footage. That said, the 70-day median market time and sellers averaging 95% of asking suggest you won't be forced into a bidding war on every home.
If budget allows and the school zone matters to you, the Gorrie Elementary area offers a rare combination of centrality and neighborhood character in Tampa. Confirm the attendance boundary for any specific address, weigh HOA and tax costs against the home type, and you'll have a clear picture of whether it's the right place for you.

Gorrie Elementary School FAQs
Is the Gorrie Elementary zone a good place to live?+
It's one of South Tampa's most sought-after areas, combining central location with a strong family reputation anchored by Plant High School. You're about nine minutes from downtown and close to the water, which suits buyers who want city access without a high-rise lifestyle. The trade-off is cost — this is a premium zone.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
Yes, relative to much of Tampa. The median list price is $797,450 and the median sold price over the last year was $800,000, with 43 active listings asking more than $1 million. Average price per square foot runs about $576, reflecting the zone's desirability and central location.
What do homes cost in the Gorrie zone?+
Active listings range widely — from about $197,000 up to nearly $20 million — with a median list price of $797,450 on the current 102 homes for sale. The median home size is around 1,602 square feet, so you're paying for location and lot as much as space. You can filter the full range on the live map.
How is the market right now?+
It's steady rather than frenzied. Homes take a median of 70 days to sell, and over the past 12 months 302 homes closed with sellers getting about 95% of asking on average. That gap suggests buyers have some negotiating room, especially on homes that have been listed a while.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs about $870 per month, though that figure is skewed by the condo and gated communities in the mix — many single-family homes here carry no HOA at all. Median property tax is around $7,909 per year, which tracks with the zone's higher home values.
What are the schools in this zone?+
The area feeds into schools including Madison Middle School and Plant High School, with partnership programs like the Usf/Patel Partnership Elementary School also in the broader area. Because attendance boundaries can change, always confirm the zone for a specific address directly with Hillsborough County Public Schools.
How is the commute from here?+
Location is this zone's strongest card. Downtown Tampa is roughly a nine-minute drive, and Tampa International Airport is about 21 minutes away, giving you quick access to the region's job centers and travel. Major corridors through South Tampa make getting around straightforward.
Is there new construction available?+
Yes — there are currently 12 new-construction listings active in the zone, which is meaningful in an area built out largely with established homes. Many newer builds replace older teardowns on existing lots, so you'll often find modern homes mixed into traditional streets.
