To my surprise, and contrary to all the doom and gloom out there that says people are moving out of the area, the Tampa Bay market is now ranked #18 by Arbitron. It would rank even higher (16) if the "great minds" would accept that Sarasota/Bradenton and its 600,000+ people should also be part of the same radio market as 80% of the signals overlap, just look at their ratings if you do not believe me.
