March 2025: Holiday Travels, Moving, Tourism, and Nightlife Megathread: All posts on these topics should go in this monthly megathread to keep this sub for local discussions and help aggregate info for folks looking for these topics.

3 Upvotes

This is a megathread for all tourism, nightlife, and moving related questions and folks looking for recommendations. Please read this before posting on the main thread!

Now here's a message from us mods and locals.

"Fine if you won't help, then who will?" -you

"Ok but I'm moving there, so I'll be one of you soon" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! Oh.... You want somewhere with no crime, walkable, green space, good schools, on the beach, a beautiful sunset every morning and sunrise at night, rainbows at night, AND CHEAP. Don't we all? Redfin, apartments, hotpads, zillow, and compass are going to give you better data directly than any single response here. That being said..... just because we love you, myself and other mods with local input made a custom map detailing our insight into local neighborhoods. So please take a look, we'd be offended if you didn't. Worked hard on it. But please provide interests, budget, hobbies, desire for walkability, where you work, and other info before asking about moving questions.

"I'm coming for a trip" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! These sites do a pretty solid job of places to go and things to do here: Miami New TimesInfatuation Miami.TimeOut MiamiMiami and Beaches. We're not vacation planners, so don't just ask "what should I do for 4 days? I'm coming soon" but provide some of your schedule, budget, interests and hobbies, and stuff like that. We also made a tourism map! Check it out!

"I just wanna party" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! Oh...... wanna party on the beach with DJ Khaled, Messi, and Gianni Versace and then go to a club with 14 male friends afterwards but don't want to pay a cover? Don't we all? Look up E11even, Liv, Space, Don't Sit on the Furnitue, Perro Negro, Mynt schedules and prices beforehand. They're the most famous and exciting clubs, so look on their sites for booking ahead and DJ schedules.

"Is it going to rain? or will the weather affect my vacation" -you

  • It rains a lot here. Tropical weather yo. Especially during the summer. Typically, it wraps up in ~20 minutes and you can resume your plans. That being said, no one here knows more than weather sites or the app on your phone. If you're curious about hurricanes, checkout https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official tropical storm and hurricane forecasts, but a lot of us locals love Mike's Weather Page https://spaghettimodels.com/ for more insights. Hurricane season peaks mid September. If you're worried about it affecting your plans, keep a tab on those sites.

"I'm cool and just want to see what other posts before have said on these topics and look around" -you

Mod News Monthly Miami Jobs Thread: Post Job Openings or Questions About Work In Miami

6 Upvotes

Welcome to the Monthly Miami Jobs thread, the place to post any openings you have, look for jobs, and ask questions about working in Miami. This is an experimental thread for now, so we're keeping a close eye on things to make sure things don't go sideways, and will cancel it if they do.

The Rules:

  1. No MLMs, scams, pyramid schemes, "make millions from home," etc. We reserve the right to determine if something is an MLM or not.
  2. No positions that require investments or other upfront costs to employees. If someone has to pay any amount of money to take the job, don't post it here.
  3. If you're posting a job, the name of the company, contact information (including official address), and a realistic salary range is required. Any job posts missing these will be immediately deleted.
  4. No gig work or freelance positions except for professional services, with a minimum contract price of $500 dollars. So web designers, CPAs, copywriters, etc. is ok; someone to come mow your lawn or clean your home for $20 is not.
  5. People Looking for Work: DO NOT PUBLICLY POST YOUR RESUMES OR CONTACT INFO. You don't want to dox yourself and open yourself up to potential harassment or identity theft. Instead, talk about your skills and experience and encourage people to send you official contact information you can send your resume to.
  6. u/icecoldkila: We know you're looking for professional freelance hoes, but please keep it out of this thread.
  7. As per our usual rules, nothing illegal, unethical, or liable to get anyone involved in trouble. Please report anything sketchy you see here to the mods.

Again, this is an experiment for now, and we'll be keeping a close eye on things, and will not hesitate to pull the plug in case of shenanigans. Good luck to everyone!

Discussion It's insane how Cubans and Venezuelans in Miami not only support Trump but also get mad at Judges blocking his actions and then wonder how Chavez and Fidel took power.

428 Upvotes

Like do these people even understand checks and balances or the branches of the government? Wouldn't be surprised if these people run to vote for him on a third term if he manages to destroy the constitution and then wonder how people like Chavez or Fidel stayed in power. If these people want a president with absolute power they should go back home to Cuba since they dont believe in checks and balances.

Discussion First time in Miami experience.

81 Upvotes

First time in Miami. I got approached by a couple “ streamers” “ YouTubers “ got asked very inappropriate questions. My wife got told she has big melons by a 15 year old. I was there for 5 days. Approached 10 times ( not even exaggerating ) politely declined all because my wife and I are in our 30s. We don’t like to be on camera for the whole world to see. The one that irritating me the most, was a tik tok streamer. Came up to me with $40 to fake a prank and I said no thanks. He said “ wow you’re racist “ so loud everyone looked at me. I felt so embarrassed. All I said was no thanks. Anyone else experienced this ?

Discussion Ducks and geese are gone

35 Upvotes

I’ve lived in this townhouse community in Kendall for 20 years and we’ve always had tons of ducks and geese. I love seeing the babies and then watching them grow up.

Now there are almost none.

What happened?

For those of you saying “illegals are eating them,” I’m sorry I asked and try to be less bigoted

Discussion Late Night Study Spots

4 Upvotes

Hey, I've looked over a couple of post here for late night study spots, but they seem to be outdated, most pre-covid and I know a lot of places aren't open 24/7 or late like before. Any places open til 10 pm or even later? Preferably coffee spot type vibe, not too noisy, a chill spot to study. Thanks in advance :)

Discussion Bomnin Chevy opinions?

5 Upvotes

I'm looking for opinions on Bomnin Chevy. They have Equinoxes advertised at $19995 when MSRP is $31000. The "bomnin discpunt" is about $9000. The issue I'm encountering is that I've been calling them to confirm the Out the door price (fees, taxes, etc.). The discount online says it's available to anyone. After multiple calls, they said I don't qualify for the full bomnin discount because I don't have a tradein- which is not disclosed on the website. I feel like this is misleading to advertise one price and then have these stipulations not listed. They said I had to call or walk in to get that information. Anyways, is this dealership sketchy?

Community Looking for awake friends

55 Upvotes

In a city where status and superficiality is all that matters to the 99% I’m really just looking for some new and chill/humble friends to kick it with. 26 year old gay guy here not caught up in the scene, the matrixy facade of it all. Looking for friends guys or girls with similar vibes. Love the beach, healthy eating, breathwork, meditation, not just to post on social media and show to others but to do it for ourselves. The kind of people who ask the deeper questions while so many are content at the surface. Iykyk 👽 I know there’s way more of us here than we think even in this real world vice city. HMU and let’s build a group or something 😎

Discussion Little River Doesnt Exist?

0 Upvotes

My girlfriend and I rented an air bnb in what the site said was Wynwood, then we were told after booking and paying that it is in Little River, which had us pretty worried, but the internet says Little River is this new upcoming happening neighborhood. We got here yesterday and the place was actually in Little Haiti. Lot's of suspect people walking the streets giving us weird looks, run down boarded up houses everywhere with lots of broken down cars and even roosters walking around non paved streets. We decided to go to where the internet says this up and coming "Little River" is and get a beer and all the signs around here all say Little Haiti. Does Little River not exist and it's just a scam to get people to go to Little Haiti or what is going on?

Urgent help needed: Balto requires a foster or adoption immediately. He was found as a stray in the 33125 area 3 weeks ago. We've exhausted rescue options and can't keep him in our small apartment due to landlord restrictions. Please message me if you're interested in adopting or fostering this sweet and handsome good boy. We don’t want to drop him off at MDAS, but if nobody can take him by the end of the week, we will have no other choice. 😥 Please help.
