Self Storage in Tallahassee

As the state capital of Florida, Tallahassee is a mid-sized American city of just over 100 square miles and about 185,000 residents. Many locals will mention the concerted effort of the city's stewards to retain a "small town" charm to it despite the consensus that it is, in fact, a medium-sized city (as long ago as 1988, Money magazine famously declared it one of America's "top three medium-sized cities to live in.") All this aside, Tallahassee has many features that will be familiar to those who have visited other regions of Florida, or the South in general: temperatures that rarely approach freezing (and predictably rise into the triple digits during the summer), laid-back and personable "Southern charm," and kudzu vines (not too long ago, city leaders drafted flocks of sheep to graze on this troublesome vegetation.) For those questing after more unique features, though, the city does have some aces up its sleeve. Its population is easily the most educated of any city in Florida (with nearly half its residents having attained at least a bachelor's degree), and the landscape is notable for rolling hills and urban greenery comprised of much more than the aforementioned kudzu proliferation.

Cultural Amenities

With much of Tallahassee's growth intimately tied to its educated workers and student populace, it fits the cultural profile of similar college towns like Madison, Wisconsin or Athens, Georgia. Most Tallahassee residents are happy to no longer be besieged by visiting news crews (as was the case with the controversial ballot recount for 2000 presidential election, which hinged upon Florida's vote) and to go about their daily business in relative peace. Some local innovations are making this increasingly possible, such as the WiFi-equipped public transportation fleet of StarMetro, which aims at reducing the number of cars downtown (particularly around the Florida State University campus area, where the program's success has already the need for a new student parking garage.) For public recreation, the city offers a number of open-air fairs in the spring and fall, such as the Springtime Tallahassee Parade & Jubilee and the North Florida fair. High culture is also available for those who seek it out: the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra regulary performs programs of music from the Romantic repertoire, and a bit of digging will unearth cultural gems like the FSU Library's 26,000-volume collection of English and American poetry. Local spectator sporting events are never in short supply, with the long and storied history of Seminole athletics (discussed in more detail below) unfolding in the city, and the Titans of the American Indoor Football League playing their home games in the Donald L. Tucker Center.

Colleges & Universities

No discussion of Tallahassee is complete without mentioning Florida State University, the 'flagship' school in Florida's State University System. FSU boasts of its scholastic excellence in research, and this boast is not an empty one: FSU can justify this pride with its designation as a ""Doctoral / Research University-Extensive," which is the highest possible ranking awarded by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education (this designation allows the institution to charge 40% more in tuition fees than other universities in the Florida State University System, however.) With a robust student population of nearly 40,000, its enrollment is not that far behind the enrollment of America's top 20 higher education institutions. FSU's Seminoles - represented in football, baseball, and track & field - will be familiar to most fans of collegiate athletics, with all three programs yielding a respectable number of professional-level and Olympic athletes (e.g. MLB manager Tony LaRussa and Super Bowl MVP Dexter Jackson.) Incidentally, FSU is the top employer within Tallahassee, as well. Since the tuition fees and other entry qualifications needed to enter FSU might be daunting for some prospective students, numerous other options are available. A Keiser University campus in Tallahassee awards degrees at all levels from associate to doctorate, with degree programs favoring business management, information technology and nursing. Meanwhile, Florida A & M University, as the largest Unites States HBCU [historically black college and university] in terms of total student population, has logged over 125 years' worth of higher education opportunities for African-Americans, with pharmaceutical and legal education being particular specialties of the university.

Neighborhoods & Real Estate

If the volume of home sales is a good indicator of neighborhoods' desirability, then the most desirable neighborhood in Tallahassee is currently Southwood (prior to the collapse of the real estate bubble, nearly twice as many homes were sold in Southwood than in the 2nd most popular neighborhood of Killearn Lakes.) This can be attributed to, among other things, the FSU laboratory school in the immediate vicinity and a city decree that at least 40% of the housing in the area to be "affordable." Killearn Lakes is one of the Killearn 'family' of neighborhoods, along with Killearn Estates and Killearn Acres, north of the I-10 expressway: here one can expect to find country clubs and other features of upscale living. All of the neighborhoods mentioned, as well as other popular destinations like Centerville, are located in Northeastern Tallahassee, which is by far the most crime free region in the city. Regrettably, given the crime index of Tallahassee (it is rated as being safer than only 4% of all U.S. cities), visitors and new residents cannot afford to be cavalier about their personal safety: incidences of both robbery and assault within Tallahassee are more than twice the national average, with a high concentration of such activity in the center of the city. Even residents of the cities' peripheral neighborhoods, however, should find it easy and quick to navigate: the average travel time to work for a Tallahassee resident is a brisk 17.7 minutes.
