City Of Miami
Miami is a major city in the southeastern corner of Florida, in the United States. Miami and the surrounding metropolitan area are situated on northern Biscayne Bay between the Everglades and the Atlantic Ocean. By population, Miami is the second-largest city in Florida (after Jacksonville), and the county seat and largest city of Miami-Dade County. It is also the largest city in the South Florida metropolitan area, which comprises Miami-Dade County, Broward County, and Palm Beach County, making up the largest metropolitan area in the Southeastern United States and the sixth largest in the country as a whole.
The region’s importance as an international financial and cultural center has elevated Miami to the status of world city; because of its cultural and linguistic ties to North, South, and Central America, and the Caribbean it is sometimes called “The Gateway of the Americas.” Florida’s former status as a colony of Spain, and its continued ties with that country (Spain has a consulate in this city) and her colonies also make Miami and the surrounding region a contemporary part of the Hispanic world.
