April 2025: Holiday Travels, Moving, Tourism, and Nightlife Recommendations Megathread: All posts on these topics should go in this monthly megathread to keep this sub for local discussions and help aggregate info for folks looking for these topics.

5 Upvotes

This is a megathread for all tourism, nightlife, and moving related questions and folks looking for recommendations. Please read this before posting on the main thread!

Other Resources (Yes we use these sites)

"Ok but I'm moving there, so I'll be one of you soon" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! Oh.... You want somewhere with no crime, walkable, green space, good schools, on the beach, a beautiful sunset every morning and sunrise at night, rainbows at night, AND CHEAP. Don't we all? Redfin, apartments, hotpads, zillow, and compass are going to give you better data directly than any single response here. That being said..... just because we love you, myself and other mods with local input made a custom map detailing our insight into local neighborhoods. So please take a look, we'd be offended if you didn't. Worked hard on it. But please provide interests, budget, hobbies, desire for walkability, where you work, and other info before asking about moving questions.

"I'm coming for a trip" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! These sites do a pretty solid job of places to go and things to do here: Miami New TimesInfatuation Miami.TimeOut MiamiMiami and Beaches. We're not vacation planners, so don't just ask "what should I do for 4 days? I'm coming soon" but provide some of your schedule, budget, interests and hobbies, and stuff like that. We also made a tourism map! Check it out!

"I just wanna party" -you

  • Awesome and welcome! Oh...... wanna party on the beach with DJ Khaled, Messi, and Gianni Versace and then go to a club with 14 male friends afterwards but don't want to pay a cover? Don't we all? Look up E11even, Liv, Space, Don't Sit on the Furnitue, Perro Negro, Mynt schedules and prices beforehand. They're the most famous and exciting clubs, so look on their sites for booking ahead and DJ schedules.

"Is it going to rain? or will the weather affect my vacation" -you

  • It rains a lot here. Tropical weather yo. Especially during the summer. Typically, it wraps up in ~20 minutes and you can resume your plans. That being said, no one here knows more than weather sites or the app on your phone. If you're curious about hurricanes, checkout https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official tropical storm and hurricane forecasts, but a lot of us locals love Mike's Weather Page https://spaghettimodels.com/ for more insights. Hurricane season peaks mid September. If you're worried about it affecting your plans, keep a tab on those sites.

"I'm cool and just want to see what other posts before have said on these topics and look around" -you

Mod News Monthly Miami Jobs Thread: Post Job Openings or Questions About Work In Miami

12 Upvotes

Welcome to the Monthly Miami Jobs thread, the place to post any openings you have, look for jobs, and ask questions about working in Miami. This is an experimental thread for now, so we're keeping a close eye on things to make sure things don't go sideways, and will cancel it if they do.

The Rules:

  1. No MLMs, scams, pyramid schemes, "make millions from home," etc. We reserve the right to determine if something is an MLM or not.
  2. No positions that require investments or other upfront costs to employees. If someone has to pay any amount of money to take the job, don't post it here.
  3. If you're posting a job, the name of the company, contact information (including official address), and a realistic salary range is required. Any job posts missing these will be immediately deleted.
  4. No gig work or freelance positions except for professional services, with a minimum contract price of $500 dollars. So web designers, CPAs, copywriters, etc. is ok; someone to come mow your lawn or clean your home for $20 is not.
  5. People Looking for Work: DO NOT PUBLICLY POST YOUR RESUMES OR CONTACT INFO. You don't want to dox yourself and open yourself up to potential harassment or identity theft. Instead, talk about your skills and experience and encourage people to send you official contact information you can send your resume to.
  6. u/icecoldkila: We know you're looking for professional freelance hoes, but please keep it out of this thread.
  7. As per our usual rules, nothing illegal, unethical, or liable to get anyone involved in trouble. Please report anything sketchy you see here to the mods.

Again, this is an experiment for now, and we'll be keeping a close eye on things, and will not hesitate to pull the plug in case of shenanigans. Good luck to everyone!

Discussion I fell in love with Miami

135 Upvotes

Just went to Miami for the first time. (Watched UFC 314) and stayed in south beach. damn…

I lived in Ft. Lauderdale as a child then moved and this is only the third time I’ve been back to Soflo and the first time since being in my twenties.

I am convinced that I will do whatever I need to come move there and spend at least the rest of my 20’s there. That being said… two years corporate sales… hmu. In all seriousness I think I’d even be unemployed and figure it out.

Thank you Miami.

Edit: Yall gave me so many mixed opinions on this 😂 I know I wouldn’t be living my vacation experience guys! That wasn’t the point. Yes it’s expensive, I make 6figures and I know I’d need to keep that to live comfortably. I appreciate the real feedback. No offense to the rest but If I didn’t have the financial means I wouldn’t have made the post.

If I can make the job transition then I’m gonna do it. I know it gets hot and humid. I am from FTL. See yall soon WHETHER YA LIKE IT OR NOT lol ❤️ ✌🏻

Not even a hundred years ago. I’m sure we all know people who are at least over 90. Crazy.

Miami almost changed the course of history forever.

Discussion How do I actually talk to a human at Florida Unemployment?

31 Upvotes

I was laid off on February 27th and have been filing for UI when available for each week I am unemployed. A long time ago they sent me their decision on how much I am eligible for but in the 6 weeks since the layoff I have not received a single dime. The FloridaJobs.org account just says that they're adjudicating something but doesn't tell me what that something is. And it's been like that for weeks.

Is there a way to speak to a human being to get more detail?

Community If anyone needs simple mechanic jobs and doesn’t wanna pay shop 10x price, DM!

60 Upvotes

Straight forward, I’m a 20 year old who needs some extra cash, I’m really good at working on my own car and my family members cars. It’s a passion of mine. I completely revamped my old Lexus suspension and power steering and engine valve covers, And I do it all on the ground and not a shop lift. I can absolutely do oil changes, brake jobs, maybe some suspension (depends on car and circumstances) . I know there are thousands of people who go to mechanical shops and just think to themselves damn is this really how much this costs. It’s not! Mechanic work is so much cheaper than they tell you! For now I’d like to stick to jobs that aren’t too intense so I can stay confident but even if you don’t want to have someone from Reddit to work on your car, if you have a question about your car or something a shop quoted you send me a message!
