for a family of 3 or 4 in Tampa you can live on $50k/year if you are renting an apartment in the ghetto.

Now days you can expect to spend $1500/mo for a 2br apartment in a decent area. $2000+ for a 3br.
I own my house so I don't have that issue, but I would say $100k/yr minimum is needed in FL (with no state taxes!) to live a basic and comfortable life. The forbes article was generalized to upper middle class and I think it was right on to state roughly $300k/yr in the south.
