Miami Shores is an amazing community and a hidden gem! It's somewhat small so it feels like a small family. It has a beautiful bay that overlooks the water and the downtown skyscrapers. Many people, including me, love to come out here to jog, walk their dogs, and to take a breather. During mango season, many houses even set up mago stands to give away free mangos from their mango trees! Talk about a sense of community. the roads are always clean and the greenery is always well kept. With many diverse food options, fun activities, and easy access to main roads you'll never get bored.
Miami Shores is a small town about 15 to 20 minutes away from the heart of Miami. The downtown area of Miami Shores is evolving well but still has at least 2 to 3 years to go before it reaches its true potential. Right now, the downtown area of Miami Shores is very sleepy and not much to do. That being said, within 5 - 10 mins in any direction you have an endless amount of food and nightlife options. The Shores is a great place to raise a family for safety and having the feeling of living in a nice town close to a big city. Real estate has become fairly expensive over the last few years as the Shores has gained a lot on popularity. One major issue though for a family is that public schools in the town are not good. So high RE values with expensive property taxes for poor public education...very disappointing in that regard. Overall I do like the Shores but am planning to relocate in the next few years to an area with better pubic schools.
Miami Shores is a great community to live, due to number of restaurants, parks and school are located near and less crime. The University that I plan to attend is located in Miami Shore which is very convenient and local near my home. Also my family is really knowledgeable with the area.
