It's last thread for this topic. I wondering that would you rather to live in Miami because of sun, beaches, nice sky and other everything. Just discussion there.

PS: That's not including in Broward and Palm Beach County. Its only in Miami-Dade County.

Well... here is how I perceive Miami. Miami is Toronto with palm trees.

Really, I don't think I would. If I was gonna live south, it'd probably be the LA area. LA is naturally beautiful, and I would be able to snowboard in the winter months, while still enjoying fairly mild weather =]. Miami is just flat, sprawled... Like I said, "Toronto with palm trees."

yes

for me Miami is the best city to live in all world

hell yeah!

Fuck no it's hot, dangerous, and in the south

yes....live here and love it!

i would but only if it was in one of the better off areas, but if i had to pick between LA and Miami i would pick LA :)

Miami, along with Boston and Washington, is the only US city I'd live in other than NY. Miami is awesome.

Yes I def. would. Only problems for me are the extremely hot weather and the hurricanes.

yes, not the first place i would pick, but i definatly would be extremely happy living there

i dunno. it's a cool city but...

but....?

Yes, it comes just after Philadelphia and Chicago on my list.

sure!! I love cuban food and can speak spanish

No Never, I rather live in a third world country

sure would u provide me a house? :D

Yes, sure! I lived there for a couple of years (1991 to 1993) and I had a wonderful time! :)

yes, only if there is AC, no Jeb Bush and no Hurricane.

Cant deal without real seasons, and the city is too small for my tastes. If I had the money, I would consider a condo for short stays, though.

Yes......definately my favorite US city. I plan to someday, (but will probably go with Davie or one of the other nearby burbs.) I couldnt afford to live in Coral Gables and would have to own my own house, (I cannot live in a condo or apartment.)

Would I live in Miami?

of course!!!!! for these reasons

1. I have alot of family there
2. The Weather
3. The Women

thats all!!!! but no. 2 and especially 3 are big reasons I would make the move!

Its pretty sizable IMO. Its like 5 million, which is pretty big.

si, yes i would move to miami I now live in Tampa(how do i change my location thing on my profile?), but if i could, i would leave to miami!

Yeah, much more population than Atlanta.

the more reason I would not live in Miami

Yeah, much more population than Atlanta.
I think Atlanta has about 5 million or close to it in the metro area.

5 million people in a US-style metro isn't very big, and the city itself does not have a "big" feel to it, at least in my opinion. But my take on cities is probably a bit different than most people's: once you live in Tokyo for four years, a place like Miami seems quite small.

Well. If there was no chance of living somewhere else, yes. I would.
Definitely not the city I would pick first though. ;)

Why do people care so much about the population?

Why do people care so much about the population?

i know, who cares if the metro is 1 or 20 million? as long as its not in the middle of nowhere

I think Atlanta has about 5 million or close to it in the metro area.

No. It's around 4's million in Atlanta right now.

no its 124 billion

no its 124 billion

Shut up.

it's getting more fabulous by the minute. It is Wallpaper* magazine's hottest city on the planet, after all.

God... Wallpaper*? I used to read that in the late 1990's. I didn't know it was still around.

Miami has some of the most soulless suburbs ever created by man. An endless grid of subdivisions. Take a look at these satalite photos:

Browse around a bit up there. Prepare to weep.

Those maps are showing Broward and Palm Beach counties. Yes there is some nasty suburban sprawl there but then again, name one US city that doesn't have the exact same thing?

New York, Boston, Washington, Philadelphia, and many others don't have anything that resmebles that. This is sprawl at its worst.
