I've always dreamed of retiring in Miami. I'm drawn to the vibrant and exotic lifestyle which has something to offer for everyone. Large port city for both cruises and Caribbean destinations where opportunities are limitless. Being from a neighboring state, I travel to Florida often for either theme parks or to catch a cruise from either Miami or Port Canaveral. Every time I travel down there, construction is ongoing, non-stop and expanding. New buildings, roads, overpasses, and communities. Yet every time I turn on the news its doom and gloom about insurance rates, flooding, and climate change. What is the future of the city? Is it better to stay way from Florida overall?

There’s plenty of ports. And I’m sure they will be some new ones popping up in the next few decades. : /
Be patient and if you treasure your sanity maybe choose not Florida.
Florida before the pandemic is different from Florida after the pandemic with regards to population growth
Florida gets a lot of bad rep in an echo chamber like Reddit.
Does Florida have flooding/climate change related issues? Of course it does. Is this suddenly news or that people *just* found out? Of course not.
The cost of living has risen in FL, arguably more than other places, but it HAS gone up almost everywhere. The biggest problem with FL is that historically, other than the tony parts of it, it was always a cheap place to live. Well, that drives people of similar socio-economic status to it.
And now? Now, Florida is attracting a different demographic. A demographic that is relatively affluent, younger, and very different from what was “old Florida”. This has the “old Florida” folks up in arms. I don’t blame them, but gentrification is what it is. If it starts happening, it starts happening, and rarely stops. Do you see people here whose household income is $400K (just picking a number, but this is not an uncommon dual income household in a lot of places) and “complaining” about FL? Most likely not.
The biggest factor is WFH. NOW, workers, especially white collar, are not tied to a particular geography and can live where they choose and work for employers nationwide. And to them FL offers a LOT. There’s no way FL local wages can compete with that and that’s driving a lot of the angst.
People are complaining about housing costs in FL. They have no clue that it is still way cheaper than a lot of other places. And if a $400K household doesn’t have to pay state taxes of anywhere from 5-10% or more, that’s an additional $20-40K per year in their pocket. I’ll pick the middle number, $30K/yr. That’s $2500/mo which is almost a $450K mortgage even at today’s rates. Think about that for a second. That’s a lot of buying power.
Miami…now, oh Miami.. 🙂 I love that place. It is unique, it is vibrant, it is energetic and is absolutely gorgeous optically speaking. Does it have problems? Of course. So does Manhattan, or LA or SF or Seattle or Boston or…
My forecast is that Miami will be just fine barring a major ecological or climate disaster. I also suspect that the state and federal govts will start looking at active measures to negate some of these disasters in the not too distant future. There are many many cities that are at or below sea level worldwide, I don’t see them falling over. I foresee FL in general becoming a more affluent place with major changes in demographics in the next 10-20 years.
Major Fortune 500 companies are setting up space there, billionaires are moving in, Wall St is moving in, it was already crypto central. These people have way more resources to assess risk and are not stupid.
I’ve read that seawater encroachment is a problem in Miami. That is, before it’s actually underwater, there is still sunny day flooding, nuisance flooding, and corrosion of building foundations that can be dangerous.
I wouldn’t move there. But if I did, I certainly wouldn’t live in a high rise. And I wouldn’t buy a place, I’d rent. On high ground.
