I moved from the Tampa / Pinellas county area and there were plenty of rough spots. Hell, we had riots there a while back -- the only other US city to have major riots other than L.A. in my life time. Guns/gangs/violence were a problem in the public schools I went to. I bet the areas m3jlp mentioned under "Hialeah" (Liberty City, Miami Gardens, Overtown, etc) probably account for most of the high crime rate in Miami... About 100K+ jobs -- most people my age I know here are lawyers and doctors who are north of that range along with people in IT (my field). I don't know anyone in real estate.

If I could make as a salary what I make in Northern, VA, I may consider moving as Miami is a beautiful city ( i love the beach) and good real-estate deals are plenty; I also have family and friends there. However, I haven't found any Engineering or Engineering Project Management positions that pay enough in Miami (i.e., $125k-$135k). I assume it is because there may not be a strong industry for the line of work that I am in.....but I'm just speculating. -SZ |

I can see lawyers and doctors doing well in Miami with all the criminals to defend and plastic surgery to be done (or old folks that need treatment). I'm a Principal Engineer/project manager in it IT but I've never really looked at salaries in that area; however, I don't see the industry being as stable as it is in DC/Northern Va. However, I do have several buddies in my field that moved from Miami to DC/northern Va for many of the reasons that I had stated on my earlier posts. I may just take advantage of the real-estate market and try to get into some property on or near the beach. That way I can vacation, enjoy the "good" Miami, and then return to Northern, Va. The places that you mentioned above...Hialeah, Liberty City, Carol City, etc... have always been bad. I was almost car-jacked near liberty city once; purchasing a firearm in Miami is a sound investment IMO...LOL. My grandmother still lives in Hialeah; she moved there when she came from Cuba in the early 60s. -SZ |

Whats up people!!! I finally made it to Miami....I Must say for the first day on I826 I had to help some people on the freeway as they piled up on an accident I was the fourth car.....I had plenty of time to brake and safely get over to the far left lane!! Damn it was close....all this in the first day in Miami.
Well I'm here and can't wait to get to know some new folks and of course BMW heads....I only have my 325i sedan with me as I am waitng for the M3 to arrive again in Charleston and then hopefully I get to bring her out to some meets as well. I'm curious to know if there is anyone getting together anytime soon. I would like to get around and meet some folks and see what Miami has to offer!! Look forward to meeting you guys. Thanks.......Scheer SPeed I'll be contacting you soon.
