Is Miami A Decent Place to Live?

I grew up in Miami (Coral Gables). If you're going to live anywhere in the area, go to Coral Gables, Coco Plum, Gables Estates or Gables by the Sea.

I wouldn't mind living in Michigan, but Dade Co. is so desperate for teachers, I can get certified there for just moving and teaching.

I was trying to teach in MS (where I currently live), but the beauracracy is ridiculous around here. I've had an almost impossible time trying to get certified. And I figure Miami at least has some nightlife to it. The Mississippi Delta does not.

Well, if I do go, I will probably be low-class instead of high class. That doesn't concern my much. If it isn't as bad as the southside, I think I can deal with it.

Not really as like in Ft Lauderdale, the trade winds keep the humidity pushed out west further. In the summer it is never as hot in FTL or MIA as it is in Orlando, Tampa or even Atlanta.

The ocean is warm year around except Feb and March.

If Miami was a woman, her ass would need to be put to sleep. Andrew Cunning or whatever his name was killed the whole damn city when he shot Vercase. The reality of it is that it is harsh and you are either doing very well for yourself or you are poor. Middle class doesn't seem to exist. Whites and Blacks are the minority down there, even in combined numbers. You wont' be teaching, you will be babysitting.

Dude, I used to keep a small boat in the Florida Keys. The outboard motor gave me problems one year and I had to walk around trying to find a mechanic to fix it.

A shirt will last for 1/2 block before sweat makes it unwearable. I ran out of shirts pretty quick and my fan base dropped off due to 'odur de shirte'.

Not as hot as Hotlanta or Orlanda? That isn't saying much. It is still hot, hot during the peak of summer. The sand will burn your feet on a hot day.

Why do you think they are so desperate?

Get certified, get experienced and then you have options. Some people love Miami, it is ideal for a hard living single person who speaks Spanish.

Especially if you wear a thong well.

The cost of living is normal for a big city.

dude... move to ca.

California or Canada?

I wouldn't mind either. Unfortunately, the only job openings for high school english teacher that I found listed were in Inglewood. I lived in Southern L.A. for a few months...not my bag.

Now San Diego or San Francisco would be more my speed.

If I do go to Miami, I hope it isn't as hot as New Orleans. That place is unbearable in the summer.
