If Miami's cost of living to wages ratio were better it'd be the perfect city.

"There are also many moving to Miami and many people at my place of employment have no desire to leave this city either (all ethnicities)."

the only people moving to miami and staying are from latin america or the caribbean.
the size of the population that defines themselves as american (all races) drops each year.

I don't mind Latin Americans and Caribbeans. If they are nice, of which many of them are, that is fine with me.

I don't like how most of my friends have moved out of Miami because they got sick of it!

You can find them now in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Chicago, and one got married and lives in West Palm Beach.

Driving. Is it required to constantly talk on a cell phone and drive here? People here are the worst drivers I have ever seen. I try to "model" appropriate driving etiquette for others in Miami, letting people merge if needed, not talking on my cell while driving...really people, put down your phone and drive nicely.

Not particular for Miami, but here it goes:

- NO japanese people
- No good chinese restaurants
- No theater showcasing only international movies
- No anime conventions
- I have to go to Broward to see descent shows
- WALMART

I agree and I'd add that the problem is not about money, the real problem is about culture and mentality. It seems Miamians think different from the rest of the country. They confuse politeness with weakness; however, when you answer in their rudeness same way their aggressiveness go down dramatically.

It's kind of they need to prove you if you are weak or not.. Strange way

I agree with you winter. Youre into Anime? Do you know if there is an Anime store around here anywhere?
