Hi! I am really interested in moving to Miami. I heard the temperature is great year round, the culture is exciting to experience, and of course the music is awesome.
i have never been, but i do know its the 8th most populated area in the us wiith 5.5 million people!
Indeed, that's interesting information. Do you think the housing costs may be too high for someone moving from themidwest?
i think it really is, becuase the city is a leader for finance, commerce and media so many people want property there
I also understand that the violent crime rate is one of the highest in the nation for large and small  communities.
yes but it is not as big as in new york, last year there were 290 homicides alone
I just looked at this website https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/fl/miami/crime. It looks like this might be a good source for "checking out" the different neighborhoods.
but in 2008 the forbes magazine ranked miami america's cleanest city as well
Interesting! I wondered about the availability of homes to buy. It looks like there are 5,879 homes for sale right now! Prices range from 75k to over 4.5 million!
yea there is no surprise it was ranked the richest city in 2009 in the us, and the world's 17th richest in the world
