I lived in St. Petersburg from 1959 to 1977, so I grew up in this atmosphere. I remember once during Johnny Carson's monologue he had made a trip to St. Pete and called it "the town of the walking dead'. It was in the St. Pete Times the next morning, I thought it was funny and I was probably in my 20's then. It is what it is.
