Miami Beach Travel and Vacation Rental Overview
Miami Beach is a city in Florida. This small barrier island near Miami was originally cleared of mangroves in the late 1800's to make way for a coconut farm, and was later incorporated as a city by real estate developers in 1915.
Miami Beach is a city in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States. The city was incorporated on 26 March 1915.[3] It is located on a barrier island between Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean; the Bay separates Miami Beach from the city of Miami, Florida. The city is often referred to under the umbrella term of "Miami," despite being a distinct municipality. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 87,933. 55.5% of the population was foreign born.[4] A 2005 population estimate for the city was 87,925.[5] Miami Beach has been one of America's pre-eminent beach resorts for almost a century.
