Few cities in Florida have a history as closely tied to the expansion of rail service as South Miami. Incorporated in 1927, this compact Miami-Dade municipality grew during South Florida’s early twentieth-century boom and remains a distinct city within the Miami metropolitan area. It lies on the low coastal plain several miles inland from Biscayne Bay, where a subtropical setting meets dense urban development. Sunset Drive forms a familiar local commercial corridor, while Metrorail’s South Miami station connects the area with central Miami and other points on the rail line. The city’s streets reflect the multilingual, Latin American and Caribbean influences that shape everyday life across Miami-Dade County.
