    Coral Gables Reviews

    All Categories
    Coral Gables at its heart is a high-end residential neighborhood with some of the oldest and greenest streets in Miami. The most well-known residential areas have lush, tree-lined streets and large (or super large) residences owned by the uber rich in Miami. There are plenty of other residential neighborhoods within the four corners of Coral Gables that contain older two-story apartment buildings as well as new luxury apartment/condo developments. The heart of the shopping district is Miracle Mile, which contains the city's boutique shops and multiple restaurants and bars, but there is also a large shopping mall (Merrick Park) which caters to the area's wealthy clientele. Rents and overall cost of living in Coral Gables are high, but it seems fairer than the abnormally high cost of living in some other parts of Miami such as the Brickell area.

    Beautiful homes, historical sights, and great dining shopping in a safe atmosphere. Plus, it is central to everything you can possibly need!
    Coral Gables is one of the most popular residential communities in Miami-Dade County. It is centrally located and has an abundance of activities, parks, and an active night life for both young adults and seniors. It is a great place to raise a family and has a multitude of high ranking schools. I wouldn't change a thing! :)
