Opa Locka, Carol City, Miami Gardens
whats the huge difference between these 3 cities?
i know they are ALL high crime and drug areas
notably 183rd where shooting are very common
besides maybe opa locka being the worst of the 3 evils what is really so different about them?

The only differences would be in the way they look i guess....i used to live off of 47th ave. in Carol City and it looked almost the same as Miami Gardens, but Opa-Locka looked a little different because of the architecture......other than that it all is about the same as far as the feeling of saftey goes....or unsafety.

Opa Locka is older, and does have arabian style architecture, and is run-down in looks. In my opinion, much of Miami Gardens was Carol City, ever since I was a kid. My husband grew up in Carol City (NW 177 St & 55 Ave), but now is called Miami Gardens with the passing of incorporation. (will always be Carol City to me, though)
I would feel more uneasier driving through Liberty City, than Miami Gardens any day.

I agree with that. Also Opa Locka looks horribly old...
