Why is so economic to rent Cutler Ridge?
Which would choose, Hialeah, Cutler Ridge or Country Club? (security, commute time, quality of life, neighbors, public transport. All the places that I must to choose are complex of apartments.
Commute time to Jackson Memorial Hospital

I am not sure were Country Club is? I wouldn't choose Hialeah or Cutler Ridge, IMO. We all have different ideas of what we like, I know someone on here said they like Cuter Ridge, IMO its a little sketchy in parts not all. As for your question about public transportation and commute time, where are you commuting to would help us answer this question.

Hialeah is fine, Country Club is north of miami lakes around miami gardens and just south of broward, its a nice quiet neigborhood but its kinda of expensive, and cutler ridge is a place i dont know too much about. The whole area is surrounded by the turnpike, palmetto, I-75 and i know that hialeah has its own bus system and the whole area is also with the metro bus theres also the metro rail in hialeah and amtrak. And the areas are packed with apartment complexes, and theyre not all the preetiest but theres alot of nice neigborhoods. The commut to Jackson is probaly 20 to 30 minutes on a normal day.

From Cutler ridge to Jackson, via the bus and then the metrorail, I am not sure as I don't use public transportation. But probably some where around 45 minutes to an hour.

I live in Cutler Ridge. Hialeah is probably closer to Jackson than Cutler Ridge but Hialeah is whole othe lifestyle. Cutler Ridge is more lay back and you got the Turnpike and US-1 rigth there around the corner.

Oh and its cheaper because its a little further. Its 30+- minutes from downtown but 30 minutes is typical to get anywhere either way.

The cheap apartments in Cutler Ridge are huge complexes with scary tennants. They are usually adjacent to the Busway and US 1...older....and a long commute to anywhere that isn't Cutler Ridge Mall. The area is not where you would want to live if you work at Jackson.

Hialeah, once again, is not known for its nice apartment complexes. Also traffic is bad, but on the upside, you could commute on the backstreets to get to Jackson and make it there quicker.

Country Club is a nice little area but the apartments there area whole different story.

On the whole, apartment complexes in Miami tend to draw in the more undesireable elements and are very transient. Try renting an apartment in a house or a cottage in an area like the Gables or West Miami....you will be closer, pay less rent and have a dramatically shorter commute.

My problem is that I need an apartment that admits pets and these are the cheapest places in where I have seen announcements in Internet.

I would not live in either Hialeah or Cutler Ridge. Let me explain why. Hialeah is were all the Cubans live. I am Cuban myself, but those that live in Hialeah are the recently arrived, and those people don't have a clue of what live in the USA is all about it. They have recreated their third world cities, streets, markets, etc, in the city of Hialeah.
Cutler Ridge is no better. The area is infested with crime. The Mexicans and other illegal immigrants prolific in there. I don't want to make this a race war, but the African Americans that live in that area are not too civilized either.
If you are looking for a good place around those areas, try Miami Lakes, right next to Hialeah, or Pinecrest, north of Cutler Ridge.
Good luck.
