Moving to the Southeast Florida (Atlantic Coast / Gold Coast)? Common questions
What's the Gold Coast?
Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties — the densest, most expensive, most international stretch of Florida. Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Hialeah, Hollywood, Pompano Beach, and the rest of the southeast coast.
Is South Florida really as expensive as people say?
Yes. Miami-Dade and Broward have the highest rents and home prices in the state, plus the highest home-insurance premiums, the highest auto-insurance premiums, and the highest sales tax. Offsetting that: no state income tax, highest wages, and the best international airport connectivity in the Southeast.
How bad is Miami hurricane risk?
Miami has tougher building codes than anywhere else in the US — post-Andrew (1992), Miami-Dade requires impact windows and reinforced roofs. A well-built post-2002 Miami home is arguably safer in a hurricane than an older Panhandle home, even though the storm exposure is higher.
Is sea-level rise changing the market here?
Yes — king-tide flooding is now routine in Miami Beach, and insurers have started factoring future risk into premiums. If you're buying, ask specifically about 2050 flood-zone projections, not just current FEMA maps.
