I thought it'd be fun if ***MOD CUT*** discuss "ethnic enclaves in Miami. I'm interested in just the city, not the entire area.

There's, obviously, little Havana and little Haiti. I've also read that little Havana is no longer mostly Cuban. Is this true?

I've also read that Wynwood is the historic Miami Puerto Rican neighborhood and was or is known as little San Juan. I also read about either a Koreatown in or near the jewelry district.

Anything else?

Is there a little Italy? If not, I would be very surprised.

Little Havana is not really Cuban anymore. It is made up mostly of Central Americans with the majority being Nicaraguans.

Wynwood and Allapattah were never majority PR or DR. It just has/had the highest concentration of Puerto Ricans and Dominicans in Miami. Just like places like Sweetwater and Doral are stereotyped as majority Nicaraguan or Venezuelan even though they're only about a quarter of each.

I guess people exaggerate percentages here. I believe Little Havana is still close to 50% Cuban and they're the biggest single group IIRC but because there is a lot of Hondurans and Nicaraguans people act like all the Cubans just disappeared.

Miami it's a melting pot, has people from all places of Earth. I think the biggest groups could be (I'm not 100% sure anyway): cubans, colombians, white americans, haitians, canadians.
