¿Cómo está Miami?…

(Entry 1 of 2) : a member of an American Indian people originally of Wisconsin, Illinois, and Indiana.

Miami-Illinois is an Algonquian language within the larger Algic family. The name “Miami-Illinois” is a cover term for a cluster of highly similar dialects, the primary ones being Miami proper, Peoria, Wea, Piankeshaw, and, in the older Jesuit records, Illinois.

The city’s name is most commonly attributed to Muskogee origin, “Haiyakpo” (prairie) and “hili” (pretty) combining in “Hialeah” to mean “pretty prairie”. Alternatively, the word is of Seminole origin meaning “Upland Prairie”. The city is located upon a large prairie between Biscayne Bay and the Everglades.

Miami has a big problem with drugs, gangs, and crime. While we can’t classify it as “safe” in general, it’s a fairly safe city for travelers. Of course, there are some areas you should definitely avoid, but these are areas most locals wouldn’t visit either. There are also natural dangers to be aware of.

5 of the best places to spot celebrities in Miami

• 1) Seaspice. If you want to catch Beyoncé and Jay Z in the eating act, this renovated warehouse on the Miami River, with dockage that yacht captains jockey over, is the place to do it.
• 2) Prime 112.
• 3) Island Gardens.
• 4) Art Basel.
• 5) South Beach Wine & Food Festival.

Although the area is far less dangerous today than in its past, don’t wander into the neighborhoods late at night, particularly East Little Havana (east of 17th Ave) where high crime rates and gang activity is still a concern.

Miami Beach is generally a safe city for visitors. However, as with most major tourist destinations, pickpocketing is the biggest concern, particularly during the chaotic nighttime and along busy Washington Street. Walk in groups at night and avoid any unfamiliar territory.

In Miami Beach the beaches are closed at night. But that doesn’t mean there is nobody out there. There are also homeless people who prefer the beach rather than the parks, where they are allowed at night. Frankly, I wouldn’t feel safe on South Beach late at night, you don’t know who might be out there.

Most of the hotels, restaurants and clubs at South beach are within a walkable distance. Unlike Miami Beach, South Beach contains some of the best beaches, clubs, restaurants and shopping streets. More and more people prefer to stay at South beach rather than at Miami Beach.

United States has strict laws regarding drinking alcoholic beverages. However, in Miami Beach, bars close at 5am, and there is even a section of Downtown Miami that is allowed to sell alcohol 24 hours a day. That said, drinking alcohol is not allowed on the beach, or on public streets.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Police and wildlife officials captured an unwanted visitor on Miami Beach. An alligator was spotted Sunday swimming in the Atlantic Ocean near the South Pointe Park pier. Alligators typically stay in fresh water but can tolerate brief periods of time in salt water, according to wildlife officials.

The coast is clear. Water samples from the beaches, collected on July 17, showed heightened levels of enterococci bacteria, which lives in the intestines of humans and warm-blooded animals. …

But snakes are all over Florida. Maybe right now in your Coral Gables backyard. There are six venomous varieties in Florida: the eastern coral snake, southern copperhead, cottonmouth, eastern diamondback rattlesnake, timber rattlesnake and the dusky pygmy rattlesnake, according to the Fish and Wildlife Commission.

Actually there aren’t. All around the city of Miami the city officials put up signs that say “No alligators permitted”. Because alligators usually obey the law, once they read that sign they turn right around and go back into the Everglades National Park where they belong.

Swimming in a Florida lake is generally safe, but there definitely have been people attacked and killed by alligators in Florida. Small children should not swim alone or be left unattended on the shore of a large Florida lake. Never swim in a Florida lake at night and never clean fish on the shoreline.
