dont live in miami unless its south beach or aventura.
dont bother with Pembroke Pines - Lauderhill is shit and too far north of miami
like jim said Hialeah and Opa Locka are shitholes
hollywood is cool - east of I-95 to the beaches and a mile or so west is cool -
same goes for ft lauderdale, downtown area, las olas area - wilton manors is cool - east of I-95 to the beaches - but there are spots that are fucked up - just drive around the area or ask a realtor.
there are nice areas in west broward like davie, copper city, plantation and weston but its suburban and 30 to 45 min from south beach -
if your under 30 35 and single or have a wife/gf with no kids, stay east of I95

hahaha... that's right. we're all foreigners, pizza is for breakfast because we haven't gone to bed yet, and don't stop to pee on alligator ally!
