[quote=Anonymous]When I moved to Miami in 2000 as a single white woman, I felt there were two neighborhoods in which I could walk alone at night: Aventura and Key Biscayne.  Parts of Coral Gables are safe, but other parts are dicey.  I chose Aventura and loved it. However, I had a really long commute to work, to Coral Gables, which stunk. It took 45-90 minutes each way.  I left in 2004 for a job but if I had to do it again, I'm not sure what I'd do. The commute was rough.  If one of you is commuting to downtown, I would look into Brickell (an island just south of downtown with a mix of high rises and houses) as a short commute with cute neighborhoods.

DH and I just considered a move there but the schools are awful and the values don't match ours.  When I was 28, I was invited to a Botox party. Someone else asked who did my boobs. That's not the environment we want for our kids. However, it's not an issue for you, so go and have fun!  The Latin culture places a large emphasis on enjoying life, dancing, music, and relaxing. You will pick up Spanish, but probably not enough to use at a job.  Many restaurants become nightclubs so you can leisurely eat outdoors and then dance. I loved seeing people of all ages - even grandparents - dance.  [/quote]
