About the area

Working-ClassUrban ResidentialCar-DependentHistoric Community

West Brownsville is an established, predominantly African American and Hispanic working-class community located just west of central Miami and south of Hialeah. It consists primarily of modest single-family homes, small apartment complexes, and neighborhood commercial corridors along major avenues. The area is close to Miami International Airport and transit corridors but lacks tourist infrastructure.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
