 Miami's explosive population growth in recent years has been driven by internal migration from other parts of the country as well as by immigration. Greater Miami is regarded as a cultural melting pot, heavily influenced both by its very large population of ethnic Latin Americans and Caribbean islanders (many of them Spanish- or Haitian Creole-speaking).
The region's importance as an international financial and cultural center has elevated Miami to the status of world city; because of its cultural and linguistic ties to North, South, and Central America, and the Caribbean it is sometimes called "The Gateway of the Americas." .(Information provided by Wikipedia .)
If you are looking at visiting, Miami certainly offers the best to its visitors.

The Nation's Mayors Focus On Air Travel In America: National Action Forum On Economic Impact of Travel Industry/Arts
Palm Beach, FL – In the midst of the national financial crisis, U.S. Conference of Mayors President Miami Mayor Manny Diaz, along with Honolulu (HI) Mayor Mufi Hanneman, West Palm Beach (FL) Mayor Lois Frankel and USCM CEO and Executive Director Tom Cochran, today held a Mayors’ Forum on Air Travel, Tourism & the Arts and the impact that each sector has on the U.S. economy.
More than 40 mayors from key cities around the country gathered at the Breaker’s Hotel in Palm Beach (FL) to discuss the impact of air travel industry on the U.S. economy, and mounting challenges that are undermining economic growth. Mayors heard from industry experts who explained that in 2007, the airline industry generated $172 billion in revenues -- an amount equal to 1 percent of the U.S. gross domestic product. However, increasing jet fuel prices and growing flight delays have created a crisis with U.S. air travel in that eight U.S. airlines have ceased operating since 2007 according to the Airport Transport Association (ATA). |
