Introduction to Tampa

Tampa (English: TAMPA, Cantonese: Tianbai) abbreviated as TPA

The Tampa urban agglomeration is the second largest urban agglomeration in Florida after Miami, and the second largest urban agglomeration in Mexico after Houston. The second largest urban agglomeration on the Gulf Coast, the fourth largest urban agglomeration in the South after Miami, Washington, D.C., and Atlanta, and the 19th largest urban agglomeration in the United States. Due to its good climate and low prices and taxes, Tampa Bay has been the preferred destination for American and foreign immigrants over the past 20 years, as well as the preferred vacation and retirement resort in the United States. Coupled with more open space, the development of medical and electric power industries, and the formation of Wall Street in the South, the Tampa Bay area has now become the fastest growing region in the United States, ranking 49th in the 2010 PricewaterhouseCoopers World City GDP Ranking.
