Thank you all. I have a part of the picture in my head now.
Anyway my plan is to find an apartment(one or two bedroom) with a tenant already in so with a roommate cost of rent would me cheaper. At least that is a plan for start...

Doesn't make much sense to agree with him when I already provided an example of a rental for $1k/month. And that was working with a limit of only $1k/month. Yours' and croatbob's posts stating that someone would have to spend $1500+ for a studio is even more easily refuted. If I just sort of split the difference and look for rentals with only a $1300 top end instead of $1500, I still come up with several pages of listings on Realtor.com.

Page 2 | Apartments for Rent in 33139 - realtor.com®

And that's just south beach, not mid beach. Moreover, those are just the rentals that are listed with realtors. If I were to open up the search criteria to include people renting without utilizing a real estate firm, there would be many more.

Well, place to live is less important than a job. I want a job that is payed enough for a decent living. Without need for the car to get to work(public transportation, little scooter or electric bike), and I would find a roommate with apartment to pay less for accommodation. No plan to rent anything by myself it's too expensive.

MIAMI hands down! FLL is extremely overrated and is nothing but an overgrown and overcrowded gigantic suburb.. Miami is where the glitz and glamour is, and coming from one in the hospitality industry, the hospitality jobs in Miami are proven to pay much better than FLL and you have access to more prestigious hotels that don't exist in FLL..

Miami beach is not that bad. I have a friend, he runs a French restaurant there and he pays really good. He told me you have to because of the competitors.

Good comments. All it's left is to find a decent job, that would be the goal.
Keep comment on this and similar subject so I can have a better picture of what to expect and what kind of job to look for in Miami or Miami Beach.
Thanks everybody, you are a great help so far.
Nice forum page.

Hey folks I still didn't make any move with moving to Miami Beach.
By your replies on my post, season ends by the end of the June and there is not too much time left to work over there.
So I am in doubt still to go now or wait until September,October...

You're right, but why let facts get in the way?

Expecting California type real estate, I was surprised by how cheap Miami Beach was and is.

Definitely possible to find a studio for 1k on South Beach somewhere. But to me it's shocking what you can get here for 2k, if this was San Francisco you'd get a dorm for this money.
