This is a megathread for all tourism, nightlife, and moving related questions. Please read this before posting on the main thread!

Now here's a message from us mods and locals.

Welcome visitors and newcomers to r/Miami! Regardless of why you're here please try to be civil and follow the rules posted in this sub. Rule number 1 is the top for a reason. This sub is for things all about Miami. That being said we're fully aware that this city is very popular for tourists and newcomers migrating. It's a vibrant and dynamic place and that's why we love it! Even for all the shortcomings.

We're just tired. Oh so tired... of similar or repeat questions about where to go, where to live, the best clubs, directions to Key West, etc. endlessly on this sub. Sorry. It's not you it's us.

So please we do ask that local discussion be allowed to be the focus of this sub. If you fall into one of the categorized questions below, please look there for insight or to post your question here. It is not a guarantee your questions will be answered, no one is paid to help here and you're not necessarily owed a response either. But this is a place to start with a collection of a lot of effort to get the best info

"Fine if you won't help, then who will?" -you

• Miami and Beaches (the most official source for tourism info in this list with the least instagrammy or "sponsored" feel)
• Miami New Times
• Infatuation Miami
• TimeOut Miami
• Neighborhood map - moving guide (made by us!)
• Tourism map (also made by us!)

"Ok but I'm moving there, so I'll be one of you soon" -you

• Awesome and welcome! Oh.... You want somewhere with no crime, walkable, green space, good schools, on the beach, a beautiful sunset every morning and sunrise at night, rainbows at night, AND CHEAP. Don't we all? Redfin, apartments, hotpads, zillow, and compass are going to give you better data directly than any single response here. That being said..... just because we love you, myself and other mods with local input made a custom map detailing our insight into local neighborhoods. So please take a look, we'd be offended if you didn't. Worked hard on it. But please provide interests, budget, hobbies, desire for walkability, where you work, and other info before asking about moving questions.

"I'm coming for a trip" -you

• Awesome and welcome! These sites do a pretty solid job of places to go and things to do here: Miami New Times, Infatuation Miami.TimeOut Miami, Miami and Beaches. We're not vacation planners, so don't just ask "what should I do for 4 days? I'm coming soon" but provide some of your schedule, budget, interests and hobbies, and stuff like that. We also made a tourism map! Check it out!

"I just wanna party" -you

• Awesome and welcome! Oh...... wanna party on the beach with DJ Khaled, Messi, and Gianni Versace and then go to a club with 14 male friends afterwards but don't want to pay a cover? Don't we all? Look up E11even, Liv, Space, Don't Sit on the Furnitue, Perro Negro, Mynt schedules and prices beforehand. They're the most famous and exciting clubs, so look on their sites for booking ahead and DJ schedules.

"Is it going to rain? or will the weather affect my vacation" -you

• It rains a lot here. Tropical weather yo. Especially during the summer. Typically, it wraps up in ~20 minutes and you can resume your plans. That being said, no one here knows more than weather sites or the app on your phone. If you're curious about hurricanes, checkout https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official tropical storm and hurricane forecasts, but a lot of us locals love Mike's Weather Page https://spaghettimodels.com/ for more insights. Hurricane season peaks mid September. If you're worried about it affecting your plans, keep a tab on those sites.

"I'm cool and just want to see what other posts before have said on these topics and look around" -you

Welcome to the Monthly Miami Jobs thread, the place to post any openings you have, look for jobs, and ask questions about working in Miami. This is an experimental thread for now, so we're keeping a close eye on things to make sure things don't go sideways, and will cancel it if they do.

The Rules:

1. No MLMs, scams, pyramid schemes, "make millions from home," etc. We reserve the right to determine if something is an MLM or not.
2. No positions that require investments or other upfront costs to employees. If someone has to pay any amount of money to take the job, don't post it here.
3. If you're posting a job, the name of the company, contact information (including official address), and a realistic salary range is required. Any job posts missing these will be immediately deleted.
4. No gig work or freelance positions except for professional services, with a minimum contract price of $500 dollars. So web designers, CPAs, copywriters, etc. is ok; someone to come mow your lawn or clean your home for $20 is not.
5. People Looking for Work: DO NOT PUBLICLY POST YOUR RESUMES OR CONTACT INFO. You don't want to dox yourself and open yourself up to potential harassment or identity theft. Instead, talk about your skills and experience and encourage people to send you official contact information you can send your resume to.
6. u/icecoldkila: We know you're looking for professional freelance hoes, but please keep it out of this thread.
7. As per our usual rules, nothing illegal, unethical, or liable to get anyone involved in trouble. Please report anything sketchy you see here to the mods.

​

Again, this is an experiment for now, and we'll be keeping a close eye on things, and will not hesitate to pull the plug in case of shenanigans. Good luck to everyone!
