Miami Gardens is a city in Miami-Dade County, Florida. It shares boundaries with Doral to the northeast, North Miami Beach to the east, the village of El Portal to the south and unincorporated Palm Island on Biscayne Bay to the west.
Miami Gardens is a small south Florida town located just north of Miami. It was settled by the Seminole Indians and later became a stop for migrant farmers on their way to Key West in the 1880s. Today, it has grown into a diverse city with over 100,000 residents.
The Miami Gardens neighborhood in Florida used to be a small rural area of South Florida. After the city of Miami was established in 1896, the plan for the city included all of what is now Miami Gardens. The population there has steadily increased since it began development in 1925. With an estimated population of 6,100 residents, this neighborhood offers many shopping and dining options that are all less than 15 minutes away from your front door.
