Born and raised in Miami Ive lived in Westchester, Coconut Grove, Kendall, Hialeah, Flagler n 67Ave, Doral. I've been out partying many nights in downtown. Ive never had an issue ever. Miami overall is safe if you don't look for trouble. Worst thing about Miami is the cost of living and it's getting worse.
Been to Miami a couple weeks ago as a tourist (I’m from Italy 🇮🇹 of Peruvian descent) and something crazy happened to me and my friend in Little Havana. We were following directions on Maps to find graffiti and we ended up in a side road near Flagler st. This dude standing with the back against the wall comes to us and says “If you go further we gon kill you, we gon rob you… as a matter of fact I should rob you right know”. We were hella scared so we explained we were tourists and we were up to no trouble. “Look, I see y’all don’t know Miami, I’m gonna help you find your way out these blocks. Stay close to me and no one will ever touch you” he said. We didn’t know what to do, he was visibly drunk and looking around and seeing the kind of people around we had no choice but to follow him. “Everybody around here knows if we dare to touch tourists we gon get 25 years inside” - he told us. We were like “Oh really?? That’s crazy bro”. Not gonna lie, 3 times he stopped people who were following us, probably because they saw my friend was carrying his backpack. “They with me, they good” - he said to them. Thank god he took us out the hood and led us until the bus stop for Miami Downtown. Never in my life I had experienced something like that, it was surreal

Great video, I realize a year old and a couple of these areas have really changed. One is overtown just north of downtown. When I worked over there years ago, high density apartment buildings mostly, but in the last few years, you wouldn't recognize it, those older buildings gone, new ones replaced them, and 6 times the rent of what people were paying. Another area is coconut grove, used to be as you drove off us1 at Grand Ave you would go through rows of apartments built years ago. Now same as overtown, new buildings everywhere at 6 times what people were paying. Great location, only a few miles up us1 and you are downtown or easy access to beaches on key Biscayne. But in putting in these new buildings really gutted the character of the area. You could at one time go to Grove cinema on weekends and see Rocky horror picture show, or many other things to do, replaced years ago by a CVS, just what the world needs another one of those, killing any local pharmacy that might have been there originally.
Lived in Little Havana since I got here from Cuba. Little Havana is definitely a place you want to avoid walking around at night. Some areas of 8th ST are safe especially where the bars are but the entire surrounding area is definitely a bad place to be at night. Stay strapped.
Shady people out there at night. I had one guy fallowing me one night.. his intentions were clear he was gonna rob me. Good thing i was bold and fast and managed to evade him.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I had to pull my "super soaker" on a homeless dude on the corner of 17 ave and 8th. Guy wouldn't quit hassling me over a cigarette after I had already gave him two and got real aggressive. I also threatened a crackhead with a 2x4 after he looked like he was going to jump the fence into my yard. I'm glad I live in Port Orange now.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS straight up man but to be honest with you the reason I'm able to even afford Port Orange rent is because me and my wife pulling in both incomes. If I was alone I'd be right back in the hood. Florida is hard bro.
I was born in Miami 1952. There was beautiful wild birds and just gorgeous back then Went down in 1983 will never go back for anything. If I want the ocean will go to Cape Cod or Jersey Shore
I'm from the UK and was on holiday in Miami in 2023. One night i walked the long road/motorway from Mid-Beach to the airport in the middle of the night (1am-2am) and ended up going to a gas station (Chevron) in Brownsville after passing Earlington Heights train station. I thought i was going to die, zombie-like crackheads aggressively begging for money, slow driving tinted cars, one of the spookiest places i have been in real life .
mark, I recently went to Chicago. And saw its worst streets from O Block, to Humbolt Park, To Little Village, Southside, and most the cities notorious areas. Chicago is a VERY CLEAN and NICE CITY. hard to even tell if an area is bad because structurally its a SOUND CITY. despite the cold weather, on a nice summer day.. CHICAGO has lots of great areas to offer. I don't know if your referring to crime, it definitely felt unsafe but Chicago felt like a clean and orderly city to me structurally well cared for even in the bad parts. I guess its all in the eye of the beholder.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I lived in Chicago for 14 years. Moved to Miami in 2019. Chicago is a great city. But the crime is out of control. Even in Lincoln Park. With the crime, high taxes and shitty weather, I couldn’t wait to get our. And I lived in Roscoe Village. A very nice area. Even there I head gunshots. And car jackings are the worst in the nation.
@@markprad what caught me off guard about Chicago was how clean and orderly every building is used and it did seam like you have massive job opportunities and if it wasn't for the weather. I loved the food we had sadly someone was killed right behind the place we were eating at that day. I wanna see more of Chicago... just not when its in the 20s like on my trip this month. I wanna see it in the summer. Great American cities, crappy weather tho.
Great video. One thing, it’s interesting we always view ‘gentrification’ as a negative. The alternative is leaving these communities the way they are… violent, unhealthy areas to live. As long as developers include portions of affordable housing (I admit this is rare) and historic districts are left untouched (this is the law), gentrification is a great thing.
I was raised in Miami bought my first home in Miami and still live in Miami. I love the gentrification it’s making my community look better and cleaner. I now feel safer to walk my dogs around the neighborhood. I didn’t think I would ever want to do it until one day I seen a white guy walking his dog. And then I seen more white people walking their dogs and going on family strolls around the corner ( I know they’re Hispanic 😊) I say well, I’ll be. No I’m just kidding. That’s what my grandmother would say. But yeah, the change is great.
Agreed. Gentrification is better than the alternative, which is keeping those places as tax burdens to the city. I rather a place be gentrified, than leave it as a place filled with crime.
@@robertmontoya5044 “fixing” things costs money. Whoever lives there has to pay additional rent/mortgage. If those original folks improved their skillset and earned more money, they could stay! Nobody says they can’t. Just have to be able to afford quality living.
My Great Grandfather was Miami-Dade’s first Black Pharmacist. People’s Pharmacy later became People’s BBQ. Overtown ain’t shit no more… But it’s home! 😂😂😂😂🤷🏿♂️ A lot of potential has arisen in recent years due to Wynwood’s traffic.
I got arrested in overtown and had to live in a doc program on the border of liberty city and northside. Northside was my metro stop. The first day out of jail I go to sleep and wake up to a dead body hanging out of a car parked right along the outside of the fence.
Yall, Remember Uncle Al and the Poison Clan? The parties on 2-2 Ave? The Pac Jam? The Soul Bowl between The West and Jackson? Over Town vs Liberty City? The old Time Hurricances? The Pork n Bean Projects? Lodgemont Projects? Carol City? Opa Locka? 163rd Street Mall? ........
All those places will be gentrified soon. Unfortunately there are good decent hardworking people in those areas and they will be pushed out. They won’t be able to afford living in the ghetto anymore. Like what’s happening in NYC and LA. A huge cleanup of the poor.
The Democratic Fish Fry had to end sooner or later. Voting for Liberal politicians with all these promises just to keep you living the Pork & Beans lifestyle. Time changes everything...
I worked in all these areas doing hurricane clean up. There's is lots of beautiful homes and lots of nice people that live in these area. every house is not rundown
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS ouuu yeahh la aint all rich and fancy. It has its areas like miami thats very poor and poverty as well. It will most def suprise you. Yall got to come here out west. But the 2 cities do favor eavh other in some parts.
The hoods are disappearing in Miami rapidly due to gentrification. You should have seen Miami in the 1990s/1980s. I will say this though, regardless of what they do to the city, the place is a dump and will remain a dump. It is a tropical Cleveland. In fact, even that is an insult to Cleveland. I just can't see how anyone can live there anymore.
give me $1,000,000 and expect me to end up in Corral Gables. its got great parts too. Best latin Food and culture. Cleavland is a frozen tundra next to a snow lake.. Miami is Miami regardless of what the bad parts look like.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I would honestly take living in Cleveland over Miami in a split second. On the west side for sure. Don't care about the frozen tundra and the lake is beautiful. That's my take.
I’m actually from Liberty City. Don’t hold your head down. You’ll look suspicious. I grew up in Brownsville for years before I moved to LC so trust me we hate suspicious people because you might be uc (undercover. Nod yo head as a sign of respect and keep moving. We ain’t violent… just watch what you say, how you move and what you wear. We struggle so you will be snatched even yo girl if she fine.

About 10 yrs ago I provided security for a contractor in Texas who told me a story about his 8 man crew who did some work in Miami. He said that the job lasted about 4 months but most of his men never made it out of the city and two of them got killed and he don’t know what happened to the rest. It’s gotta be a pretty rough place
I got a question why u separate liberty square and Brownsville aka brownsub did u know they both in liberty city I'm from liberty city I'm from the north side of liberty city tho I'm not from liberty square I'm from brownsub but anyways why did you separate it you must was breakin it down for people to know 🤔

@@danielvalentino3334 yea I dont know why he had an attitude with you. I've seen other comments that ppl caught an attitude with him but yours was just a question. Even though all cities have city limits much of the cities down south like Miami Atlanta Jacksonville Houston they are the county seat that's why ppl from Miami say Dade county or ppl from Jacksonville say Duval. Up north like Baltimore their is Baltimore City and Baltimore county. Two separate places even though Bmore county surrounds the city
Amen.. You so right no matter how much he disect it even south beach coconut groves the whole miami to me they all got same jerk mindset and mentality as if they above all of them in it together..
It is odd how fascinated people are with ghetto neighborhoods. So many channels film videos in these neighborhoods. I live in Brandon and work in Ybor City. I find myself in all these neighborhoods you just featured in the Tampa video. I’m either trying to get around traffic or there are businesses there that I patronage. They’re really not interesting places. If there are reasons to be there they are not dangerous but in all honesty if you go sight seeing on my block and no one recognizes you there will likely be as much of a problem. Even in this supposedly middle class neighborhood.
i find it fascinating because it is so different of everything i have ever seen. i wanna see how ppl live their lives and what they do all day. it is just so interesting

Although Overtown has changed a lot in the past 2 years it's still nowhere to be wondering. U better have a purpose cuz u will get approached on ur business.and if ur business isn't their business ( buying drugs) they will be hostile quickly
I'd like to know what would happen if when getting out of a taxi that had ripped you off, if you took a photo of the licence plate. In 2013 I stayed at the Days Inn by Wyndham Miami International Airport where reception asked if I they could book me a taxi. I agrred and paid for it at the hotel. When I was dropped off I was asked to pay by taxi driver.

I have a associates and bachelors in criminal justice, and a associates in paralegal. I work part time and travel full-time. I also have a travel marketing business. My neighbors are great. From time to time I do hear some gunshots, but I’ve stayed over to other areas that were not considered as bad and heard gunshots there too 🤷🏽♀️. I guess to each is own when it comes to their experience and opinions. Liberty Square is home to me. I don’t bother it and it don’t bother me.
I live in Houston. At least in Miami there are neighborhoods you can be in by day. Houston has areas you don't go to period unless you live there and they know who does...
Just visited Houston Texas from Tampa,the Texas drivers seem to be more courteous than drivers in Florida many whom seem to be out for themselves,traffic was also heavy in Houston but they have to have better roads to handle it.Hopefully,you might be able visit some areas in Texas especially the Coastal areas,Galveston,Corpus, Christi,Padre Island,Brownsville,Harlingen,Laredo towards the Mexican border,you might want to avoid Mexico because of the cartel.Would make a nice Winter trip.
We have actually been talking about this Texas Trip! Be careful if you got a pick up truck they steal them along the border often. Knowing me, I would be hiding the camera in the grill and recording on the mexico side 🤣
I live in Little Havana, I feel pretty safe there though. I probably wouldn't walk around at night, even though I have and felt more or less safe as well, but during the day it's mostly chill.
Many parts of Miami feels like a 3rd world country. Many of the people make you feel like you have encountered an animalistic tribe, rather than civilized people.
Drugs and crime has ruined these areas. Maybe eventually the prices to live here will drive the poor people away. It is getting too expensive to live here even for a lot of middle income people.
Little Havana is not hood… and honestly there’s not really much of a reason to go outside of 8th street as a tourist, unless you want authentic nica food for example Yambo, pinolandia. Other than that not much of a reason for you to go into the pockets of neighborhoods unless you’re already doing sketchy with a local. In fact the roads is a really nice neighborhood in little Havana!
East little Havana is not that safe especially passed 12th avenue these blocks are really sketchy, I grew up on NW 2nd st by 10th avenue and SW 5th st by riverside park. It’s way better than it was 10 years ago but still a lot of crime , poverty & still a little bit of a gang presence mainly by Henderson park. Don’t not sleep on this neighborhood especially passed 11 pm.
Miami is like every big city. Just look over your shoulder and be aware of your surroundings. The tourist places just keep your eyes over. Miami Beach Lil Havana Wynnewood Bayside Coconut grove.

My Great Grandfather was Miami-Dade’s first Black Pharmacist. People’s Pharmacy later became People’s BBQ. Overtown ain’t shit no more… But it’s home! 😂😂😂😂🤷🏿♂️ A lot of potential has arisen in recent years due to Wynwood’s traffic.
nice
It's the way he said Allahpattah 😂😂😂#tourist
But i got you to comment
yooo tremendo baile with that outro song doe
I got arrested in overtown and had to live in a doc program on the border of liberty city and northside. Northside was my metro stop. The first day out of jail I go to sleep and wake up to a dead body hanging out of a car parked right along the outside of the fence.
Yall, Remember Uncle Al and the Poison Clan? The parties on 2-2 Ave? The Pac Jam? The Soul Bowl between The West and Jackson? Over Town vs Liberty City? The old Time Hurricances? The Pork n Bean Projects? Lodgemont Projects? Carol City? Opa Locka? 163rd Street Mall? ........
All those places will be gentrified soon. Unfortunately there are good decent hardworking people in those areas and they will be pushed out. They won’t be able to afford living in the ghetto anymore. Like what’s happening in NYC and LA. A huge cleanup of the poor.
Bitch u ain't shit
The Democratic Fish Fry had to end sooner or later. Voting for Liberal politicians with all these promises just to keep you living the Pork & Beans lifestyle.
Time changes everything...
I worked in all these areas doing hurricane clean up. There's is lots of beautiful homes and lots of nice people that live in these area. every house is not rundown
Loved the video👍if you do another one, make sure to add Allapatah, I live near there and it has a lot of gang violence
Yeah i did a video there before
I would have thought some parts of Chicago would rival areas in Miami in regards to danger/criminal activity.
Miami is fucked up
Chicago is much more dangerous.
Miami is a east coast la. Two cities favor each other in many ways.
One side rich and fancy, the other side grimey poverty. No middle ground there
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS same with la. Its crazyyy
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS ouuu yeahh la aint all rich and fancy. It has its areas like miami thats very poor and poverty as well. It will most def suprise you. Yall got to come here out west. But the 2 cities do favor eavh other in some parts.
@@josejones3312 no real gang banging in the M I A. But still dangerous you have groups of dudes that beef it out
No
I've been to both. Nothing alike. I live a few counties north of Miami.
u sound like a real civilian but you greatly describe the canvas of Miami's dangerous neighborhoods.
Im tell you this lots of the locals dont say dade they say 305..
The hoods are disappearing in Miami rapidly due to gentrification. You should have seen Miami in the 1990s/1980s. I will say this though, regardless of what they do to the city, the place is a dump and will remain a dump. It is a tropical Cleveland. In fact, even that is an insult to Cleveland. I just can't see how anyone can live there anymore.
give me $1,000,000 and expect me to end up in Corral Gables. its got great parts too. Best latin Food and culture. Cleavland is a frozen tundra next to a snow lake.. Miami is Miami regardless of what the bad parts look like.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I would honestly take living in Cleveland over Miami in a split second. On the west side for sure. Don't care about the frozen tundra and the lake is beautiful. That's my take.
But who want to go Cleveland. 😹
@@markprad Yeah i really gotta question that one LOL - Aint nobody gong there to vacation, live, anything LOL

We did several videos there for history to be preserved
I'm from East Lil Havana and I couldn't help but laugh to see my neighborhood in this vid, you're not wrong, it really isn't safe out here
I remember living in Brownsville for about 5 years.
I’m actually from Liberty City. Don’t hold your head down. You’ll look suspicious. I grew up in Brownsville for years before I moved to LC so trust me we hate suspicious people because you might be uc (undercover. Nod yo head as a sign of respect and keep moving. We ain’t violent… just watch what you say, how you move and what you wear. We struggle so you will be snatched even yo girl if she fine.

Im sure there is more but at least 3 on that list has a higher murder rate than Detroit. Miami has some seriously dangerous areas bullet holes in buildings and all. The tourist industry does not want you to know.
I'm born and raised in Miami and it is not a joke
He was focused on the city of Miami... not Dade county... but your list is pretty spot on..
U do realise brownsub and Brownsville da same thing and Brownsville aka brown sub is in liberty city besides other neighborhood thats why liberty city known for being da largest neighborhood in miami bc its stretch from da north to da west of miami dats near by
Florida City esta de pinga.
Pork and Beans
U can't even look at a person they'll think u either an enemy or rival gang or get killed for mistaken identity R.I.P. TO ALL MY FALLING SOLDIERS 🙏🏿

About 10 yrs ago I provided security for a contractor in Texas who told me a story about his 8 man crew who did some work in Miami. He said that the job lasted about 4 months but most of his men never made it out of the city and two of them got killed and he don’t know what happened to the rest. It’s gotta be a pretty rough place
Cap….
😂dayum. Sounds like the ones who survived saw the writings on the wall and got the fuck outta there?
😂 he probably lying just tried to scare you. I've in Miami all my 35 yrs in the heart of it. Miami liberty city & is not as bad as ppl think.
This smalls like 🧢
They prolly all became crackheads...they prolly still dopesick to the day!!! Sheeshhh🤔😂😭💯💯
SHALOM I LIVED ON 82nd BISCAYNE AND LOVED IT BACK IN 2013. IM THINKING OF MOVING BACK THERE!!
I got a question why u separate liberty square and Brownsville aka brownsub did u know they both in liberty city I'm from liberty city I'm from the north side of liberty city tho I'm not from liberty square I'm from brownsub but anyways why did you separate it you must was breakin it down for people to know 🤔
Cuz i can. For one .. liberty is city limits and Brownsville isnt,
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS 🤣🤣🤣🤣 u must be from Georgia and not Florida cause u saying limited and all dat and I just ask u a question and u giving me a nasty ahh attitude and all I did was ask a question nicely 😒
@@danielvalentino3334 I'm guessing he did it cause part of it is in the city limit the other isnt but I get your point because Liberty City is Liberty City shouldve been all in one
@@brandonbrown1171 yea cause I was confused at first and when I ask him a question about it he had ah nasty attitude with me even tho I was just asking ah question
@@danielvalentino3334 yea I dont know why he had an attitude with you. I've seen other comments that ppl caught an attitude with him but yours was just a question. Even though all cities have city limits much of the cities down south like Miami Atlanta Jacksonville Houston they are the county seat that's why ppl from Miami say Dade county or ppl from Jacksonville say Duval. Up north like Baltimore their is Baltimore City and Baltimore county. Two separate places even though Bmore county surrounds the city
The pronunciation is wild. Allahpataaaah lol ! Westchester in da house
305 till I move!
Visited Miami from Toronto 2009 had a great time. God bless America 🇱🇷
Miami Dade as a whole is dangerous AF
Amen.. You so right no matter how much he disect it even south beach coconut groves the whole miami to me they all got same jerk mindset and mentality as if they above all of them in it together..
Facts..NO matter where you live ,there's a Hood a few blocks away
It's the city of Scarface. Don't be soft. 😅
Lies!!!
Nah not near as bad as it used to be. There plenty of worse places in this country.
It is odd how fascinated people are with ghetto neighborhoods. So many channels film videos in these neighborhoods. I live in Brandon and work in Ybor City. I find myself in all these neighborhoods you just featured in the Tampa video. I’m either trying to get around traffic or there are businesses there that I patronage. They’re really not interesting places. If there are reasons to be there they are not dangerous but in all honesty if you go sight seeing on my block and no one recognizes you there will likely be as much of a problem. Even in this supposedly middle class neighborhood.
cnc813, love the Brandon, Tampa, Ybor area, I live in Winter Haven just east of Lakeland.
i find it fascinating because it is so different of everything i have ever seen. i wanna see how ppl live their lives and what they do all day. it is just so interesting
North Miami and South Miami 💯
What are the worst neighborhoods in Dade county outside Miami city limits?
There are many!!
You don’t have to name every single bad one, just a few of the worst ones

this vid facts
Miami is safe in general , I drive thru this hoods , never had a single problem
The Pork n Beans projects got number 1 yay!
Although Overtown has changed a lot in the past 2 years it's still nowhere to be wondering. U better have a purpose cuz u will get approached on ur business.and if ur business isn't their business ( buying drugs) they will be hostile quickly
I'd like to know what would happen if when getting out of a taxi that had ripped you off, if you took a photo of the licence plate. In 2013 I stayed at the Days Inn by Wyndham Miami International Airport where reception asked if I they could book me a taxi. I agrred and paid for it at the hotel. When I was dropped off I was asked to pay by taxi driver.
Welcome to Miami
What's the chances of a Miami taxi driver carrying a gun?@@ncampo305
Miami have the worst hoods in Florida I been through the hole Florida they move different down there they are calculated when they move.
Big shout out to my hood on 4:05 but there are no zoes in that area
Lol imagine doing food delivery at night 😂
South Florida has some great places to visit .. but mid-florida would be a great home base to be close enough.
I came to this video to know where NOT to go in Miami, oh how mistaken I was to realize that I live in the #1 worst neighborhood :x
Wait really lol liberty square do tell
@@trinavargas9830 I’m over here cracking up because I to live in liberty Square. Let’s just say I’m over here living ghetto fabulous. I own my home only 65,000 left to pay on it I drive a 2021 big body Benz My daughter is 21 and she has her own salon suite she’s a cosmetologist. I have a associates and bachelors in criminal justice, and a associates in paralegal. I work part time and travel full-time. I also have a travel marketing business. My neighbors are great. From time to time I do hear some gunshots, but I’ve stayed over to other areas that were not considered as bad and heard gunshots there too 🤷🏽♀️. I guess to each is own when it comes to their experience and opinions. Liberty Square is home to me. I don’t bother it and it don’t bother me.
Miami no es solo Palm Beach o Mar-a-Lago . En todas las ciudades americanas y europeas hay lugares horribles en bellas ciudades
maybe you should show Hialeah and Hialeah Gardens; beautiful houses and townhouses mainly cubans.
Ain't nothing change but the buildings
I see u driving on 2nd Ave. Going north
I live in Houston. At least in Miami there are neighborhoods you can be in by day. Houston has areas you don't go to period unless you live there and they know who does...
Like where? I am go and see it myself
I always visit little havana at night by the east side and its not that bad.
Just visited Houston Texas from Tampa,the Texas drivers seem to be more courteous than drivers in Florida many whom seem to be out for themselves,traffic was also heavy in Houston but they have to have better roads to handle it.Hopefully,you might be able visit some areas in Texas especially the Coastal areas,Galveston,Corpus, Christi,Padre Island,Brownsville,Harlingen,Laredo towards the Mexican border,you might want to avoid Mexico because of the cartel.Would make a nice Winter trip.
We have actually been talking about this Texas Trip! Be careful if you got a pick up truck they steal them along the border often. Knowing me, I would be hiding the camera in the grill and recording on the mexico side 🤣
I grew up in the neighborhood on the thumbnail I nearly cried. I survived 🙀
its gonna be fancy apartments one day, all of it
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I believe it
Beans
I live in Little Havana, I feel pretty safe there though. I probably wouldn't walk around at night, even though I have and felt more or less safe as well, but during the day it's mostly chill.
But you're a pretty female......you don't count!
I haven't had good experiences there at night. But number one love which is marlins stadium is to irresistible to not go, but it is hard at night.
Many parts of Miami feels like a 3rd world country. Many of the people make you feel like you have encountered an animalistic tribe, rather than civilized people.
What's more dangerous New Orleans hoods or Miami hoods?
Miami hoods
I don't ever go anywhere I can't go to at night. The vampires are still there.
Drugs and crime has ruined these areas. Maybe eventually the prices to live here will drive the poor people away. It is getting too expensive to live here even for a lot of middle income people.
True. It's gonna be bulldoze and turn into high-rises.
Carol city (Miami Gardens) was nationally known to be one of the top most dangerous neighborhoods in America at one time.
Little Havana is not hood… and honestly there’s not really much of a reason to go outside of 8th street as a tourist, unless you want authentic nica food for example Yambo, pinolandia. Other than that not much of a reason for you to go into the pockets of neighborhoods unless you’re already doing sketchy with a local. In fact the roads is a really nice neighborhood in little Havana!
East little Havana is not that safe especially passed 12th avenue these blocks are really sketchy, I grew up on NW 2nd st by 10th avenue and SW 5th st by riverside park. It’s way better than it was 10 years ago but still a lot of crime , poverty & still a little bit of a gang presence mainly by Henderson park. Don’t not sleep on this neighborhood especially passed 11 pm.
I lived in miami for 10 years, i’m surprised that Hialeah was not in the top 10
Hialeah is "the city that always progress." It's more of upper middle class place.
Oh please get real
THE BEAN!!!

Pronounce Allapattah correctly. You forgot one of the worst neighborhoods in Miami, Pork and Beans.
Pork and beans is liberty square 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴 people act like they know alot but be slow
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS it’s still a neighborhood, as small as it might be homey.
I pronounce it, "Alapada" withthe same vowels and syllable stress as for Alabama. Is that correct?
