About location

Tucked between Biscayne Bay and the Everglades, South Miami is a place whose character is shaped by the flat, low-lying terrain of Miami-Dade County. US Route 1, known locally as South Dixie Highway, is a major north–south corridor through the city, linking commercial areas with greater Miami. The municipality was incorporated in 1927 and developed as the metropolitan area expanded southward. Downtown South Miami, centred on Sunset Drive, combines shops and restaurants with access to the Metrorail system at South Miami station. Mature tropical vegetation and a dense road network define this built-up inland stretch of Florida’s Atlantic coastal plain.

The landscape around South Miami is a flat, subtropical coastal plain near Biscayne Bay, which has shaped both the city’s low-rise urban form and service-based local economy. Incorporated in 1927, this Miami-Dade municipality developed as a residential community south of central Miami and now combines established neighborhoods with a compact commercial core. Sunset Drive is its main civic and shopping corridor, while the South Miami Metrorail station links the area with downtown Miami and other stops on the rapid-transit line. Tree-lined streets and a warm, humid climate give the city a distinctly South Florida rhythm. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of South Miami and Miami-Dade County.

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.
