      I think Miami is too different for white and black Americans to live. They know quickly that Spanish is the language of success (pretty much). I know children have to learn English. Nonetheless, English, like cardio workouts, is only practiced in their youth. The only people who are proficient in two languages are public servants. English is greatly struggling in Miami Dade.

    It is interesting to go to Miami and hear mostly Spanish. But then here in California, I go to SoCal where there are way more Hispanics than in South Florida and you can get by with English just as easy as if you were in New England. Heck, right on the border in San Ysidro and in Tijuana I hear just as much English as Spanish among Hispanics....and many speak English better than most non-Hispanics. "Hispanic" is definitely a generic term that means little when comparing those in California and Texas (mostly Mexican and northern Central American) to those in Florida.

      The Hispanic population in south Florida is totally different to the Hispanic population in Texas, New Mexico and California and even New York. South Florida Hispanics are mainly Cubans, Nicaraguans, Venezuelans… the community is huge and prospering. Spanish is dominant and we are unmistakable politically and socially CONSERVATIVE. Even though spanish is the main language, the Hispanics down here are very pro American values. Anti communist, anti socialist, pro free market economy. That’s the reason why during the 2020 riots, antifa and BLM didn’t get any traction in south Florida as they thought they would And they had to leave somewhere else totally disappointed that the huge Hispanic population of south Florida didn’t supported them, instead, figthed them off. The community is also very politically active towards conservatism. Down here is Trump country, Marco Rubio country, Desantis country, Jimenez country , Salazar country and any and all conservative figure out there…… the Spanish is dominant yes, but the American values are a priority to this community. West coast and new York Hispanics are wayyyyy different than south Florida Hispanics…... is like if we were talking about two complete different ethnic groups. …… in fact, the two groups don’t mix very well…. Lol.

    Dear Jon, no es tan raro. Florida fue descubierta precisamente en Pascua Florida, y poblada por españoles. They found the first US city: San Agustin and belong to Spain for more than 300 years. De hecho los US compraron el estado, pero nunca lo pagaron. Legally It still belongs to Spain.

    Hialeah, una población vecina a Miami, es la ciudad más hispana y en la que más español se habla en todo Estados Unidos, de acuerdo con un estudio realizado por WalletHub, una compañía de medios de pago electrónicos. Para este estudio sobre la diversidad cultural de Estados Unidos se tuvieron en cuenta 501 ciudades de diverso tamaño y se usaron tres indicadores claves para determinar si son diversas o no: origen étnico y racial de sus habitantes, idioma y lugar de nacimiento.
    Hialeah, que, según proyecciones del censo, tenía más de 239.673 habitantes en 2017, predominantemente de origen cubano, hasta el punto de que la suelen calificar como la “segunda ciudad más poblada” de Cuba, está en el puesto 498 de la lista en cuanto a diversidad cultural.
    Solo otras tres ciudades son menos diversas, pero Hialeah, enclavada en el condado de Miami-Dade, es la número uno en todo el país en porcentaje de habitantes hispanos (95,64 %).
    También es donde un mayor porcentaje de vecinos habla español (92,25 %), lo que la hace una de las menos diversas de EE.UU. desde el punto de vista lingüístico.

    I've visited Miami twice and both times it was a surprise to me ,save at the Airport or next to Miami Beach Area, to converse with people who in spite of being in the States for yonks own a sort of limited English ,perhaps just as Jon indirectly indicates in this video the amount of latino immigrants is the reason of such linguistic phenomenon which does not happen in other Florida areas .In Fort Lauderdale , Pensacola or Orlando where many attractions are just around the corner ,there are ten of thousands of latinos as well ,but they do their best to get familiar with the English language....Perhaps if they don't learn it ,it 'd be hard for them to invite their children to Epcot Center ,The Magic Kingdom ,etc...as there ,they have to communicate in the original language of Uncle Scrooge to avoid being lost in a world where the instructions are scarcely delivered in Spanish....

Dicen que en el año 2.050 uno de cada tres estadounidense será hispanounidense. Dado que estos no se reparten geográficamente por igual, será perfectamente posible, mucho antes de esa fecha, ver Estados enteros donde el castellano volverá a ser el primer idioma. Eso sucederá sobretodo en el sur y el oeste pero también en muchos núcleos urbanos del norte y el este. Saludos desde Castilla (España).

    So Spaniards owned and managed the Peninsula.
    Until the USA Government treated the Spaniards with American soldiers to push to give Up the territory to Sale to USA which finally was purchased for USD $ 2.000.000 concided in 1821 as part of the treaty
    On regard the Spanish Language it was stablish for the Spaniards at the San Augustin city in Florida stablish on the 8th of September 1565 for Spain.

    This is a long one so pay attention.
    Miami is a great place if you just want to party. If you want to live in Miami then you need to think twice. Don't get the idea that just because English is taught at school that it becomes a bulwark against Latin American culture and Spanish. The people who become proficient in English and Spanish will become the city's civil service and elected office. The majority of English being spoken by Hispanics is at the school, and that is it. Other than that, you only hear Spanish in public; not just immigrants but also extending to the grandchildren of them living with American-born parents. Part of the reason why is that schools do not openly encourage to speak English all the time. So, if you ask do Hispanics speak English well. The answer is sometimes they are proficient sometimes less than that-let's put it that way. The reason- the culture of Miami frowns upon anything that is Anglo American. For those that do, they will most likely join the civil service like police and fire department. In these places you must speak English and Spanish, otherwise they are not letting you in. However, for the 850-pound gorilla in the room known as the private sector to which most Miamians work. Almost everything is done in Spanish -whether it is Spanish-speaking colleague or Spanish-speaking co-employees. There is no point in English when you are in adult in the private sector workplace. As for the rest of the non-Spanish speaking neighborhoods, there is not one of them that is prosperous. They are all destitute and filled with rejected people because they do not speak Spanish. Be it Liberty City, Overtown, you name it. Be a wise person and don't let the word "bilingual city" fool you. These are deceivers who don't have the guts to tell you Spanish is a prerequisite to prosper in Miami. They don't tell you that ESL has no bearing in determining that English is a preferred language; which it not.
    So, tell what you think. I will be obliged to answer.
