Review of Miami, Florida

Star Rating - 12/20/2006
I have lived in Chicago, Atlanta (Yuck!), Honolulu and now live in San Francisco. The average price of a home is 1,000,000+...no kidding. From reading these posts, it seems like Miami is relatively unscathed, so far, by the Chinese takeover.
San Francisco is VERY over rated. Racism? Blacks don't even have jobs here. High crime in Miami? You guys have cops? We have (constant) sirens but no observable police force. I now know why CA's divorce rate is 4x higher than the rest of the U.S.: People are extremely self-absorbed and only befriend another if they think that there is some way they can benefit from it. Why do I pay so much to live here? I loathe SF and CA.
I wish to move to Buenos Aires, Argentina some day and would like to learn Spanish. Only S. Florida is an option for me b/c I absolutely cannot live in the Dirty South again and, N. Florida is "Southern". How's the mass transit there? The bits I've read about 'low wages' is kind of creepy...
