October 2026: Megathread for Holiday Travels, Moving, Tourism, and Nightlife and Restaurant Recommendations: All posts on these topics should go in this monthly megathread to keep this sub for local discussions and help aggregate info for folks looking for these topics.
Miami is a popular destination not only to travel to but to move to and live. If we don't separate out these posts, the main feed becomes quickly inundated and overrun. So please utilize the resources here and comment here for these topics.
Always keep in mind please, WE ARE NOT VACATION PLANNERS OR MOVING CONSULTANTS. Be descriptive and we'll help if we can, but no one is obliged to.
Other Great Resources (Locals use these too!)
Google Maps reviews are getting less reliable over the years. And in fact several lists on these sites are in fact inspired by posts on this sub.
- Miami and Beaches (the most official source for tourism info in this list with the least instagrammy or "sponsored" feel)
- New York Times 25 best Miami Restaurants list (curated by a local)
- Miami New Times
- Infatuation Miami
- TimeOut Miami
- Neighborhood map - moving guide (made by us!)
- Tourism map (also made by us!)
"Ok but I'm moving there, so I'll be one of you soon" -you
- Awesome and welcome! Oh.... You want somewhere with no crime, walkable, green space, good schools, on the beach, a beautiful sunset every morning and sunrise at night, rainbows at night, AND CHEAP. Don't we all? Redfin, apartments, hotpads, zillow, and compass are going to give you better data directly than any single response here. That being said..... just because we love you, myself and other mods with local input made a custom map detailing our insight into local neighborhoods. So please take a look, we'd be offended if you didn't. Worked hard on it. But please provide interests, budget, hobbies, desire for walkability, where you work, and other info before asking about moving questions.
"I'm coming for a trip" -you
- Awesome and welcome! These sites do a pretty solid job of places to go and things to do here: Miami New Times, Infatuation Miami.TimeOut Miami, Miami and Beaches. We're not vacation planners, so don't just ask "what should I do for 4 days? I'm coming soon" but provide some of your schedule, budget, interests and hobbies, and stuff like that. We also made a tourism map! Check it out!
"I just wanna party" -you
- Awesome and welcome! Oh...... wanna party on the beach with DJ Khaled, Messi, and Gianni Versace and then go to a club with 14 male friends afterwards but don't want to pay a cover? Don't we all? Look up E11even, Liv, Space, Don't Sit on the Furniture, Perro Negro, Mynt schedules and prices beforehand. They're the most famous and exciting clubs, so look on their sites for booking ahead and DJ schedules.
"Is it going to rain? or will the weather affect my vacation" -you
- It rains a lot here. Tropical weather yo. Especially during the summer. Typically, it wraps up in ~20 minutes and you can resume your plans. That being said, no one here knows more than weather sites or the app on your phone. If you're curious about hurricanes, checkout https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official tropical storm and hurricane forecasts, but a lot of us locals love Mike's Weather Page https://spaghettimodels.com/ for more insights. Hurricane season peaks mid September. If you're worried about it affecting your plans, keep a tab on those sites.
"I'm cool and just want to see what other posts before have said on these topics and look around" -you

Mod News Monthly Miami Jobs Thread: Post Job Openings or Questions About Work In Miami
Welcome to the Monthly Miami Jobs thread, the place to post any openings you have, look for jobs, and ask questions about working in Miami. This is an experimental thread for now, so we're keeping a close eye on things to make sure things don't go sideways, and will cancel it if they do.
The Rules:
- No MLMs, scams, pyramid schemes, "make millions from home," etc. We reserve the right to determine if something is an MLM or not.
- No positions that require investments or other upfront costs to employees. If someone has to pay any amount of money to take the job, don't post it here.
- If you're posting a job, the name of the company, contact information (including official address), and a realistic salary range is required. Any job posts missing these will be immediately deleted.
- No gig work or freelance positions except for professional services, with a minimum contract price of $500 dollars. So web designers, CPAs, copywriters, etc. is ok; someone to come mow your lawn or clean your home for $20 is not.
- People Looking for Work: DO NOT PUBLICLY POST YOUR RESUMES OR CONTACT INFO. You don't want to dox yourself and open yourself up to potential harassment or identity theft. Instead, talk about your skills and experience and encourage people to send you official contact information you can send your resume to.
- u/icecoldkila: We know you're looking for professional freelance hoes, but please keep it out of this thread.
- As per our usual rules, nothing illegal, unethical, or liable to get anyone involved in trouble. Please report anything sketchy you see here to the mods.
Again, this is an experiment for now, and we'll be keeping a close eye on things, and will not hesitate to pull the plug in case of shenanigans. Good luck to everyone!

Discussion Why people in Miami don’t know how to open car doors?
I moved away from Miami a while ago not very far, but far enough to notice the difference. We all know that people here are terrible drivers and extremely aggressive. But you aren’t even safe when you’re parked; for some reason, people insist on flinging their doors open with as much force as possible, slamming them into other cars. This only ever happens to me in Miami every single time I visit. I never park poorly; I always stay within the lines, park as straight as I can, and leave enough space for myself and other vehicles. Yet, some idiot always shows up who feels like they don’t have enough space, so they swing their door wide open and end up denting my car door.
The last three times this has happened while I was inside the car whether I was checking the GPS or grabbing a quick bite to eat it caught me completely off guard because the impacts were so forceful. Today, I even thought someone had crashed into me because the car jolted violently and there was a loud noise; but when I looked, that was all it was though it did leave a slight dent in the door. It almost seems like it was done on purpose.

Discussion Parents that have relocated, teach me about the Miami Schools
Moving from California to Miami. A Kinder and 3rd grader. We're in a top 1% public school system in CA and we're learning that the Florida system is much different. Public, Magnet, Private, Hybrid Public/Magnet.
Ideally we'd put the kids in a great public school and re-eval private options in Middle School. Everyone suggests the Pinecrest schools for public. We toured Pinecrest, Palmetto and Coral Reef based on the homes we looked at renting. I realize that these are just first impressions but I can't say that we were blown away with what are supposed to be the best public school options. Sunset appears nicer, newer but we weren't able to tour it while we were in town.
We were also shocked by the amount of security. Some of the schools felt like a prison vs what we're accustomed to. School officials were more interested in camera and security guard statistics than academics.
So with the caveat that I realize all kids and situations are different, does anyone have an general recommendations? Has anyone relocated, faced the same questions and been happy with their decision? What did you do?

Community ¿Alguien se copa a armar un grupo para jugar Magic Commander?
¡Buenas!
Estoy buscando gente que tenga ganas de armar un grupito para juntarnos a jugar Magic: The Gathering, formato Commander.
La idea es organizar partidas casuales, pasar un buen rato, probar mazos y, de paso, conocer gente que comparta el hobby.
Nada demasiado competitivo, más bien un ambiente relajado donde podamos jugar, charlar y divertirnos.
Estaría bueno conseguir un grupo para juntarnos una vez por semana o cada dos semanas, dependiendo de los horarios de cada uno.
Si a alguien le interesa, ¡comente o mande mensaje y vamos organizando!

Community We live where people vacation
galleryNo but in all seriousness Miami has given me a lot. I came here back in 2014 with like $3000 in my bank account working at rooms 2 go. Since then I’ve busted my ass and have definitely felt the impact of rent increases and everything going up in price. I think overall Miami can be an amazing place as long as you keep to yourself. I see a lot of comments about OF girls, everything being fake, can’t find friends , scammers, etc. 90% of these things don’t affect me in my personal life except traffic. I understand this can affect others. I have a handful of good friends and my wife and that’s all I need personally. Anyway here’s a pic of this mornings sunrise

Community Ride along in fancy car?
Hello! We’re visiting Miami for my son’s birthday and he’s sports-car obsessed. He’d love us to hire one out for the day but all the ones he likes are two seaters which would mean the rest of the family couldn’t come along. Is there anywhere that offers ride along? So he could be a passenger and a driver take him on a tour for an hour or so? Thank you!

Community Pickup Soccer and Basketball
Coming to Miami this week and want to play some pickup.
I know soccer is more regulated with Plei and everything, but are there parks where it's like randoms can come in and get in next
For hoops, where are the best runs? Does every park have hoops after 5 PM? I'm assuming the runs at LA Fitness are pretty live too, but just trying to figure out where to go.

Breaking News Venezuela’s Machado returns from exile, as doubts over democracy deepen
csmonitor.comNobel laureate María Corina Machado is back in Venezuela for the first time since December. The Christian Science Monitor looks at how her return tests the U.S.-backed government, and what it means for people hoping for a real democratic transition.
