The quick read

Reading Miami, FL beyond the headline numbers

Miami sits inside Miami-Dade County, Florida, at roughly 25.77°N, -80.19°W. Population 487,014, $62,462 median household income. Median home value $518,100, median rent $1,758. Poverty rate 19.4%, read against that income figure since two cities on the same median can differ underneath it.

10 hospitals in/around Miami, 3.3/5 avg rating, 8 with an ER.

19.4% of Miami, FL residents live below the poverty line, placing it in the hardest-hit quarter of reporting cities. Read every median on this page against that: half the households are above it, and a large minority are far below.

The median home in Miami costs around 8.3 times what a median household earns in a year -- the most expensive quarter of reporting cities, and far enough ahead of local pay that ownership is largely closed to median earners.

16% of Miami workers are remote, above the midpoint of reporting cities.

Among the CDC measures on this page, lack of health insurance departs furthest from its peer median: 27.2% in Miami, the highest-prevalence quarter of the 3,759 cities reporting that measure.

7.1% of Miami workers commute by public transit, a larger share than at least three quarters of reporting cities.
