About location

South Miami Heights occupies a low-lying suburban tract in southern Miami-Dade County, Florida. It lies between the Everglades to the west and Biscayne Bay to the east, within the broad, built-up plain that extends south from Miami toward Homestead. Florida’s Turnpike forms a major north–south transport corridor here, connecting the metropolitan area with communities farther south. Wide roads, detached homes, commercial premises and palms define the local streetscape. The wider county is shaped by longstanding Cuban, Caribbean and Latin American influences, expressed through its languages, food and independent businesses.

Florida
Region Florida

Florida occupies a low-lying peninsula in the southeastern United States, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west. Lake Okeechobee lies near its centre, and water from this basin historically flowed south through the Everglades, a vast subtropical wetland protected in part by Everglades National Park. The Florida Keys extend southwest from the mainland, while long sandy coasts and inland freshwater systems shape everyday life across the state. St. Augustine, founded by Spain in 1565, is widely recognised as the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the United States.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
