Kenneth City is a town located in southern Pinellas County, Florida, between St. Petersburg and Pinellas Park, in the United States. Kenneth City was founded in 1957 by Sidney Colen, a local developer, who named the city after his son Kenneth Colen. The population was 4,400 at the 2000 census. As of 2004, the population recorded by the U.S. Census Bureau is 4,420 . The town, small in area and set amidst dense residential developments mostly with otherwise indistinguishable town boundaries, has earned a reputation as a speed trap town for the vigorous enforcement of its lower speed limits. The town gained noteriety in December 2008 for a proposed ordinance which set standards for upkeep and appearance of the interiors of residential homes, and would have given town officials the right to enter homes to inspect for violations of the ordinance.
