My entire life I have lived in Surfside. Surfside is a neighborhood straight out of a movie where you can encounter families walking their dogs, community gardens, and impeccable streets. The beach is only two blocks away and you also have three blocks filled with stores ranging from nail salons to kosher grocery markets to sushi restaurants. If I were to change anything about Surfside it would be to move the electrical wires underground however, there is a current vote to determine whether it will happen.
Surfside is aware of climate change issues and has created a resiliency board to address it. The town does have issues with affordable housing, like most of Miami. The beaches are well taken care of--there's an initiative as part of greater Miami to import sand from another part of Florida to replenish the beaches at Surfside and other locations. There is a big Orthodox Jewish population, as well as Anglo and Hispanic people. There are religious sites nearby Surfside. It is a fairly tight-knit community. There is a K-8 school nearby in Bay Harbor and a kid's park in the residential area. The area is well taken care of. There is a Surfside public party every third Thursday with music and food and malls and stores open.
A cute little town that has everything you could possibly need and then some! From the beach to the shopping, restaurants to community centers, Surfside has something for everyone.
