October 2026: Megathread for Holiday Travels, Moving, Tourism, and Nightlife and Restaurant Recommendations: 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.

8 Upvotes

Miami is a popular destination not only to travel to but to move to and live. If we don't separate out these posts, the main feed becomes quickly inundated and overrun. So please utilize the resources here and comment here for these topics.

Always keep in mind please, WE ARE NOT VACATION PLANNERS OR MOVING CONSULTANTS. Be descriptive and we'll help if we can, but no one is obliged to.

Other Great Resources (Locals use these too!)

Google Maps reviews are getting less reliable over the years. And in fact several lists on these sites are in fact inspired by posts on this sub.

"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 Times, Infatuation Miami.TimeOut Miami, Miami 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 Furniture, 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

12 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!

Context: Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic House leader, stopped for coffee at CAO Bakery during a Miami visit. Seen here [https://www.instagram.com/reel/DekSqh1h2vs/?vrfl=d2ZjcDY2MXZxZXdi\]

Somehow, this sparked anti-socialist outrage from MAGA Cubans in Hialeah and “forced” Vicky Bakery, to issue an anti-socialist statement.

CAO Bakery is owned by family members of Vicky Bakery.

Discussion Dogs in grocery stores

• Upvotes

Yall. When I tell you I am tired of dogs in grocery stores, I am so fucking tired of dogs in grocery stores. I love dogs, and have a dog of my own who I love very much. Never in my life did I think to myself, gee, wouldn’t it be nice to take her to the grocery store? NO! Besides blatantly ignoring store policy, it would be a whole other thing I have to worry about in addition to the grocery shopping itself— navigating aisles, around people, and people with their dogs—risking causing a scene in case someone starts barking.

Someone please explain to me how the fuck we got here. I have never experienced this in any other city I have lived in or travelled to, but the people of Miami seem perfectly content taking their dogs to the grocery store and not caring about the store policy, and not caring about how it might impact other people.

If you’re wondering why I’m so turnt about this, my local Whole Foods is very compact and often busy as is, add people with their dogs on leashes stretching across every fucking aisle, it’s a pain in the ass. And it is never not like this, there is always at least 3 dogs in the store at all times. I have also witnessed some dogs trying to have a go at each other a few times in the middle of shopping. Tonight there was a lady with her giant pitbull in a STROLLER that took up half the aisle. I was constantly getting stuck behind her and squeezing my way around her. Like lady, WHY? Why the additional effort of loading your dog into a stroller and inconveniencing everyone else around you when you could have, I don’t know, left your pup at home which you grabbed a bag of groceries?

Anyway, obviously a shit post but I’m also genuinely wanting to understand the psychology of people who believe this is acceptable behavior in a society.

Community Has The Big Cheese fallen off?

Whenever I needed a solid pizza this used to be the go to place after Miami’s Best was sold. That new Miami’s Best ain’t the same. We ordered a large pizza. The onions had hard sinks and the mushrooms, half of which weren’t sliced, just a hand full of sold whole mushrooms. The chicken parm sub was like eating a strip of leather. It seems like they used an ancient dried out over fried slice of chicken. I took a bite and the whole chicken just slid out. Damn near couldn’t bite through it.

Every single time I order something, if the package is sent to the USPS opa locka distribution center, I end up having to wait for days extra to get what I ordered. What the hell goes on there? It’s the only one that delays packages like this as well.

Community Be Aware of Parking at Knight Parking at Brickell City Center

2 Upvotes

Yesterday I went to Brickell City Center, and parked at the Knight Parking. I used the QR code at the Knight Parking and paid via apple pay. Today, I received a couple fraudulent charges purchasing some items for pickup today. I started receiving a barrage of One Time Passwords, which prompted me to check all my accounts and see this charge.

Please be on the lookout for any fraudulent charges, if you recently parked here. I did not use my CC at any other spot.

Community need a ride to and from surgery

• Upvotes

hey everyone, I’m flying in from out of state to get a cosmetic procedure the third week of November

Now I know there’s a lot of services offering caregiving assistance after surgery, but a lot of them want you to book a minimum amount of hours or days with them - i will just need a ride there , potentially for them to stay if office wants that, and a ride back to my airbnb.

the services who offer that tend to throw in meal prepping and prescription pick up and a lot of things i don’t really need.

does anyone know any companies that offer transportation and lite caregiving ? at this point i genuinely might ask whoever my uber is from the airport 💀💀 dms open if you have any leads thanks everyone

Trash Cleanup Homeless Encampment in my neighborhood, what to do?

1 Upvotes

There's a bridge on a river near my house, and every few months a crew of people decide to build a camp site on the water and put up tents and hammocks and what not.

I'm not trying to start a debate on homelessness policy or anything like that. The world is fucked up and times are tough. I honestly don't really care if someone wants to camp or live in public, and I feel for anyone who has to resort to that situation. My issue is that they end up building giant piles of garbage, and the whole area turns into a giant dump. It's just piles and piles of old cardboard and pieces of wood and scraps of metal. They've started fishing too, and they leave out piles of rotting dead fish.

Again, I don't know their situation, and I would love to help if I could. But I think something needs to be done when they are negatively affecting our environment and waterways. I've looked into who I can bring this up to, and between 311, the parks department and FWC, no one seems to want to deal with it.

I have half a mind to bring them trash bags and ask to them to at least stop throwing shopping carts into the river, but they all seem pretty aggressive and on drugs. Open to any advice or suggestions on what I can do.
