I made some changes. There are two canals in this area. I found the one just south of 136 and followed it all the way to the highway. Not sure if this is the correct canal to be following?

You did a great job on everything except for the canal - you chose the wrong one. The one you need to draw as the "2" / "5" boundary is the one that starts near the Palmetto Golf Course and goes to SW 117 Ave north of where it says "Richmond Heights" on the map.

Twiggers: there are some spaces you should fill in:
1) The Sunset area west of 874 between Miller and Sunset should be a "4"
2) The areas east of US1 and north of Kendall Dr. should be a "5"
3) Everything between Ponce de Leon and Douglas between US1 and SW 8 St. is Coral Gables and should be rated a "5"
Some new ones for you to do when you have time! Everything south of Calle Ocho until Brickell (but not including deep south Miami-Dade)!

Irregular boundaries, so follow along. Start at US1 and SW 27 Ave. Go up SW 27 Ave. to Coral Way and follow Coral Way to SW 12 Ave. Go up on SW 12 Ave. until SW 9th Ave. and then turn right on SW 11 St. Follow SW 11 St. to I-95, which is the eastern boundary of this area. Follow 95 to US1 and follow US1 to where we started at SW 17 Ave.
Rating: 3
Fill in everything below Calle Ocho east of I-95 and west of SW 12 Ave. down to the area you filled in above.
Rating: 5
Everything east of the MetroRail/US1 to the Bay below SE 15th Rd. to where you have already filled in Coconut Grove is a "5"
Rating: 3
Everything below Calle Ocho, west of the MetroRail but east of I-95
Rating: 4
The tiny area below Calle Ocho, east of the MetroRail but west of S. Miami Ave. is a "4"
Rating: 5
The Brickell area east of S. Miami Ave. and south of the Miami River is a "5" - This includes the area above Calle Ocho and also Brickell Key.
**I'll have to try Downtown Miami and above later**

A 3 because of high police presence?? Yea 3 is a good number.

South NE15st
North NE 39th Street.
East Shore Line:
Lower and middle class homes, Middle class new construction apartments, new up and coming area called Midtown Miami. Urban area, generally safe with a high police presence pedestrian friendly area. More of a young professional part of town, except for the older homes and apartments these are lower class places.
5 Yes 5

West : Shore line
East: Pinetree Dr shore line
South: West 42nd Street
Very nice upper middle class, upper class neighborhood, great location in Miami Beach Extremely safe area many homes over 1million dollars water front homes are very expensive.
All of this as a 5 Yes 5
East: Alton Road

North: Chase Ave
Very nice upper middle class, upper class neighborhood, great location in Miami Beach Extremely safe area many homes over 1million dollars water front homes are very expensive.
Same description goes for all of those islands in the middle of the bay along the Venetian Causeway and along I-395 Palm island and Hibiscus Island. 5
Star Island: Very exclusive small area to live all homes are well over 5 million dollars most famous neighborhood in Miami. 5
Than you could add Fisher Island. 20 
Extreme Upper class private island, most expensive zip code in the United States. Only way to and from the island is by ferry.

Also if you go North on the barrier Islands I would give all of Bay Harbour, Bal Harbour and Surfside and Indian Creek a 5, Great work!

All of FlyMIA's areas finished (except the one I posted above that needs a southern boundary). If you could double check them FlyMIA, that would be great :-)
