Deteriorating Quickly in Many Aspects
-
5/4/2007
Quality of life in Miami is decreasing at an alarming rate. Most people know of the common concerns with living in South Florida... hurricanes, property insurance and tax nightmare, crime etc...however, skyrocketing health and auto insurance rates, transportation gridlock, uncontrolled building, low wage growth, crowded schools/universities have lead to long time residents leaving the South Florida area. For the first time in many years public schools are reflecting a decrease in enrollment due to families moving from the area. As a 40 year resident of Miami, my time will arrive in 2008 when my son graduates from HS and will likely be accepted at a good public university (FL has some of the largest public university enrollments) in NC or GA while my wife and I will appreciate living a less stressful life with a higher quality of living.
