3 communities reviewed · Updated Jul 2026
Kenneth City is a compact, mostly residential town of about one square mile tucked inside St. Petersburg in Pinellas County. Its apartment stock leans toward small, older low-rise communities rather than large modern developments, giving renters a quieter alternative that's still minutes from downtown St. Pete and the Gulf beaches.
As of mid-2026, one-bedroom units in Kenneth City generally run from the mid-$1,300s to around $1,550, with two-bedrooms reaching into the high-$1,700s once required monthly fees are factored in.

Florida renter essentials
Renters insurance is not optional here. Most Florida leases require it, and standard policies do NOT cover flood damage — that needs a separate flood policy, even in an apartment. Before signing, look up the building's flood zone on FEMA's flood map service and ask which evacuation zone it sits in.
Ask about the real monthly cost. The most common complaint in Florida apartment reviews isn't noise — it's fee stacking: valet trash, common-area electric, mandatory bulk internet, pest control, admin and tech fees. Get the full itemized monthly figure in writing before you apply.
Tour with the AC running and ask about hurricanes. Humidity control is the difference between a fine unit and a moldy one; ask how old the AC is. And ask directly how the building handled the last major storm — communities that performed well say so happily, and reviewers call out the ones that didn't.
