"Ideal for Anybody!"

Sunset Drive offers mostly residential homes. Ranging between nice yet affordable apartments to priceless mansions in the historical district, You can reside on this street no matter what your financial status is. If you can think about it, it's probably there! Churches, Shopping Malls, Stores, and all sorts of cuisine are available along this often scenic drive. Police officers are constantly on the watch for drunk drivers and traffic violators along Sunset Drive, so if you have a need for speed I don't recommend you go down Sunset.

"Perfect for the Small Town Family"

Miller Drive is located in Miami, Florida and stretches from US1 all the way into the Hammocks. It is never to crowded or busy, but still offers enough stores and food stops to elevate convenience. It is perfect for individuals seeking a small town environment inside of a very big city. With a multitude of gas stations at reliable prices, and middle class homes near middle class restaurants, it's the perfect blend of middle-ness no matter what part of the road you're on. The traffic is minimal (except around 5 o'clock) and there aren't too many traffic lights compared to other streets in the same area.

"Versatile Avenue, Nothing too Fancy"

SW 127 Ave has a lot of things to offer along its long and merry way. For a while it is surrounded by residential properties and trees, then suddenly it passes some mini-malls and begins down a path with many churches and office buildings. There are many places to eat like IHOP, Checkers, McDonalds, etc. Eventually, SW 127 Ave cuts through some more residential properties and gets lost in a sea of outlets and side streets. It stretches a long way, but there are better avenues to take like SW 117 AVE, or SW 137 AVE.

"What doesn't this place have?"

Wow! South Dixie Highway has just about everything at some point or another. It is a very long road with several lanes and many exits leading into other major streets and avenues. It twists and turns a whole bunch the closer you get to the Brickell area, but other than that it's pretty much a straight stretch of road. It is located just off of four major malls that are all hot spots: The Falls, Sunset Drive, Southland, and Dadeland. Many restaurants allow for many dining opportunities, and places like CVS Pharmacy and Walgreens let you buy those things you need for everyday tasks 24 hours a day. I love S Dixie Highway. Oh, and there are hotels too!

"A long road for lots of boredom..."

SW 8 Street in Miami, FL has a reputation of being a loud, latin, dustpan, and accurately so. Along this road you can stop at places like Florida International University and big retail stores like KMart. It even connects with the Micosukee Indian Resort and Gaming area after you have driven about 5 miles down a barren stretch of dark road. Parts of this street have a very bad crime rate late at night, and it is a local joke that 8 street is where Miami prostitutes are most prevalent. Other than a long connected street, SW 8 Street is not a place I would recommend for any outing, and especially not living.

"A nice drive :)"

A good example of a pretty avenue is SW 137 Ave. Located around many residential commnunities and lakes, this avenue has gorgeous trees and beautiful scenery (for a Miami avenue of course). A driver can expect to go as far north as SW 8 Street, or as far south as Homestead. Featuring major intersections around N Kendall Drive, Bird Rd, and SW 8 Street. The traffic isn't too bad, and some stops along the way include Costco, Washington Mutual, Office Depot, Denny's, many gas stations, and many more restaurants and retail stores.

"Well connected and reliable"

SW 107 Avenue is located in Miami, FL and is a very long drive. The fact that it is so long is perhaps why it has so many things to offer the driver or even its residents. It allows access to Miami International Mall, and also has an entrance to Florida International University. Restaurants along the avenue include Flanigans, Dunkin Donuts and Chilis, among many others. It is riddled with many gas stations that offer some of the cheapest prices in Miami, and hundreds of fast food restaurants. The cost of living near it is not too high, and there are many things to do on the weekend such as visit the mall. SW 107 Avenue is the perfect example of an important pathway between important destinations.

"One of my least favorite streets"

A good description of Sw 24 Street, also known as Coral way, would simply be "annoying". It stretches from US1 all the way down to Krome Avenue. Along the way, it changes numbers three different times, and takes several confusing turns inside the Coral Gables portion of the street. The restaurants are old, the street is bumpy, and there are a lack of friendly people. Most inhabitants are latin and retired. There are several apartment complexes around Coral Way as well.

"A great place for non-clubbing weekend party animals"

Although N Kendall Drive has it's vast share of shopping malls, large restaurants, and movie theaters, the traffic is not wildly congested. Traffic is only bad during rush hours, and the roadway is wide with several lanes that allow an easy escape around slow drivers. There are awesome spots to dine such as Bahama Breeze, Tony Roma's, Ankaar Cafe', and a whole bunch of Starbucks locations. It stretches from US1/South Dixie Highway all the way down to Krome Avenue.

"Noisy and Cluttered, yet Friendly and Survivable"

SW 40 Street in Miami, Florida is full of a variety of different shopping centers, schools, and eventually residential properties. Midway along the span of this street it becomes SW 42 Street for a while, eventually returning to SW 40 Street. The common name for this street is Bird Road. With your usual array of big city fast food restaurants such as McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, and Taco Bell, SW 40 Street depicts the typical "on the move" mentality, however, it is flooded with decent schools and parks making it ideal for the working family.
