Schematic neighborhood map — Biscayne Bay on the east, the river through downtown. Click a block to open it. Distances on this drawing are not street geography. Adjacent blocks are not a claim that two neighborhoods share a border.
ACS 5-year median gross rent for Miami. Up 11% since 2014.
Overlapping 5-year ACS windows (B25064), not asking rent. Figures are for the city place, household-weighted across all occupied rental units.
Miami ranks official City of Miami neighborhoods — the city’s named geography from the GIS Neighborhoods layer — and this site shows a relocator subset of 20, not all 100-plus. Biscayne Bay is on the east of the sketch; the Miami River cuts through downtown.
Brickell, Wynwood, Coconut Grove, Little Havana, Edgewater, and Midtown are search names inside those official polygons. Calle Ocho lands on Little Havana. School ratings are not in this Miami snapshot. The map is schematic. Crime rates here use a limited public heatmap sample, not a full MPD Part I year — treat them as directional.
Not a best-of list. Four cuts of the same 20 official neighborhoods.

Published fit uses default walkable weights and a $2,500 ACS rent budget. Same order for every reader. Fit is a number inside Miami only.

ACS median gross rent mixes every occupied rental. Walk is an in-house OSM count, not Walk Score. Safety ranks Part I rates inside Miami only.
Rent figures are ACS 5-year median gross rent (2020-2024, ACS 2024 5-year) mixed across unit sizes in the City of Miami. Little Haiti is the lowest median in this set at $1,313. That is a survey median, not this week’s asking rent for a one-bedroom.
Walk is an in-house index from OpenStreetMap groceries, cafes, parks, and transit stops inside the official polygon or within 800 meters of its centroid. It is not a Walk Score® license.
Safety ranks MPD Part I rates (limited sample from public heatmap layer (not full Part I year)) inside this Miami set only. A lower index means fewer Part I reports per 1,000 ACS residents relative to the other neighborhoods here — not a guarantee that a block is safe, and not a measurement of noise.
A nearby school rating is not an assigned campus. Missing ratings sit at the middle of the scale.
Commute minutes are typical weekday estimates to named job centers, not live traffic.
Boundaries are City of Miami Neighborhoods MapServer (gis.miami.gov, official NEIGHBORHOOD polygons). Crime counts are ArcGIS Miami_Crime_Heatmap_and_Choropleth_WFL1 (approx 6k points; Crime_type mapped to violent/property). Not a complete MPD Part I extract. Rates are directional only..

How the Miami number is built — not a grade of the place.
Miami ranks official City of Miami neighborhoods — the city’s named geography from the GIS Neighborhoods layer — and this site shows a relocator subset of 20, not all 100-plus. Biscayne Bay is on the east of the sketch; the Miami River cuts through downtown.
Little Haiti has the lowest ACS 5-year median gross rent in this set at $1,313 (2020-2024 survey). A median mixes every occupied rental. It is not this week’s one-bedroom.
Mapped groceries, cafes, parks, and transit stops inside the official neighborhood or within 800 meters of its centroid. Brickell currently leads the default walkable ranking. It is not a Walk Score® license.
Official neighborhoods only — 20 on this map. Brickell, Wynwood, the Grove, Calle Ocho, and Midtown are aliases on official neighborhood polygons, not extra rows. The schematic map is for clicking, not for measuring a shared border.
Housing is ACS 2024 5-year (2020-2024). Crime is MPD Part I for limited sample from public heatmap layer (not full Part I year). OSM amenities were snapshotted 2026-11-05. Editorial copy on these pages was last revised Sep 2026.
No. A number here is a rank inside these 20 official neighborhoods, not a grade you can carry to another city.
Six axes — safety, schools, walk, cost, vibe, and optional commute — scaled only inside Miami, then weighted. With default walkable weights and a $2,500 ACS rent budget, Brickell is the current top match (78 published fit). Rankings never jump a city line. The formula is on the method page.
