What Seminole's numbers say about roofing

Seminole counts 18,997 residents (2025 estimate), growing at a middle-of-the-pack -2.2% since 2020[2]. It covers 5.2 square miles (3,662 residents per square mile, the 5th densest), sits entirely in Pinellas County, in ZIP codes 33772, 33777, 33778[3].

Roofs of every age sit side by side here: 10% of homes were built in 2010 or later and 54% before 1980[4], so two houses on one street can need very different roof work.

Seminole is split across 3 ZIP codes: 33772 (48% of the city's land), 33777 (28% of the city's land), 33778 (11% of the city's land)[5].

The tracked suburbs closest by are Largo (4.6 mi N), Pinellas Park (4.8 mi E) and Gulfport (8.1 mi SE)[3].

Observers filed 3 hail reports within 10 miles of central Seminole in 2016–2025, on 3 storm days across 3 years[1] — the 7th-most of the 14 Tampa Bay–area suburbs we cover; Largo (2), Pinellas Park (4), and Gulfport (4) for comparison. 3 were severe-size, 1 inch or more[6].

Biggest: 1.0-inch on Jun 28, 2019, 8.6 miles E of the center. Latest: Jun 25, 2025, 1.0-inch[1]. Reports peak in June and August.

30 damaging-wind reports came from within 10 miles in 2016–2025, peaking at 70 mph (estimated) on May 14, 2024[1]. 14 tornado reports also fall inside that radius[1].

Half of Seminole's homes were built before 1979[4] — the 6th-oldest of the 14 Tampa Bay–area suburbs we cover (median years nearby: Largo (1978), Pinellas Park (1978), and Gulfport (1963)). Expect a mix of first replacements and newer warrantied roofs.

Median home value: $348,500 (the 6th-highest of the 14 Tampa Bay–area suburbs we cover); 41% of housing is detached houses[4].

Measured against the 14 suburbs on this site, Seminole records the 3rd-most damaging-wind reports nearby (30)[1] and the 3rd-lowest share of detached houses (41%)[4].
