Living on the Edge of a Dream! 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) I always wanted to move to Miami, and living in University Park, FL is about as close as I could get. I live in the Town Park Estates off of Tamiami Trail, a few miles on the outskirts of Miami. I literally live in West Miami, minutes from the white-sand beaches and scenic Ocean ...Read More Drive that has to be experienced to appreciate.

The best areas in University Park for me include the countless museums, I live blocks from the Frost Art Museum. It doesn't matter if I am in the mood for Italian food or Mexican, this region has the best restaurants in the country. I can even hop on my motorcycle and take the drive south to Key West in an afternoon.

When I want to escape the tourists who pack the nightclubs along South Beach, I have my choice of exceptional beaches near Coral Gables. Shopping is a real experience in this region of the Sunshine State. There are high-end boutiques in South Beach or discount outlet malls the further north you drive along Interstate 95. Read Less
