Seminole Heights and Tampa Heights bungalows built before 1960 often still have ungrounded wiring and a single ceiling fixture from the original construction. Dedicated circuits get added for the range and microwave, outlets at the counter get swapped to GFCI, and a permit gets pulled through the City of Tampa with a rough inspection before the walls close.
