Miami, Florida Highlights
Miami, known as the “Magic City,” is the southernmost city in Florida. Part of the South Florida region, it is 20 miles from Fort Lauderdale, 106 miles from Naples, and 156 miles from Key West. It was founded in 1843 by William F. English and a group of settlers and slaves that followed him to the area. The city was finally incorporated in 1896, thanks to a deal made by Julia Tuttle to extend the Florida East Coast Railroad into Miami. The population of the city itself is around 404,000 people.
Because of its proximity to the equator as opposed to other parts of the United States, Miami weather is often—but not always—warm. Although winter weather averages around 60º to 70º Fahrenheit, temperatures can fall to around 50º during the day and 40º at night. Summer temperatures often reach over 90º Fahrenheit (32º Celsius).
Miami has the largest Latin American population outside of Latin America itself, with nearly 65% of its populace either from Latin America or of Latin American ancestry.*
