Love the city government. Their summer program is awesome and they communicate with parents. I LOVE my neighborhood. There is a mixed of people but majority are African American and Black Caribbean and they rock!!! My neighbors came to us and introduced themselves, their teenage kids are courteous and introduced themselves in the days we moved in! People respect your property, everyone asks questions and keep each other safe. They call on you if they dont see you, they will take out your garbage if youre away and sometimes, you will walk outside to see your yard mowed! Another time, they donated and decorated a neighbors yard for xmas. One of our neighbors forgot to close their gararge over night, no harm done! Trick or treating is a bliss. Keep your lights off and the kids dont bother. Its just like it should be!! We are not gated, and we dont have an HOA, just a good community.

My experience with the city of Miramar is very good. It is the fastest growing Metropolis in America. Police here wear tazer guns instead of guns with live ammunition because there is not much crime is Miramar. There are beautiful houses in Miramar; especially West Miramar. The houses there have beautiful orange tile roofs. There are massive amounts of space in the houses in West Miramar. In East Miramar where I live, there are shingle roof houses (instead of tile) that are not as big as the houses in West Miramar are but it is slightly equal because in east Miramar you have a larger font and back yard; contrary to the houses in west Miramar where is more room inside the house than out.
Miramar is one of those really great places in between Miami and Hollywood. If you want to live in a nice, quiet suburban area with little traffic, greenery and beautiful spaces rather than the bustle of Miami, then Miramar is your best bet! You'll love it!
