West Little River’s spacious lots and eclectic houses are central to Miami’s fast-paced lifestyle without being in the thick of it. The neighborhood is just outside the Magic City, right off Interstate 95, less than 10 miles from the beach. “West Little River is on fire right now,” says native Miami resident Richard Deeb, the broker and owner of South Florida Realty. “You’re close to the beaches, Wynwood, MiMo, not to mention I-95 – people don’t have to spend half their day in traffic.” West Little River’s narrow streets are lined by modest homes with fenced-in front and backyards that feature mature palm, live oak and fruit trees. The neighborhood has a small shopping mall, several public schools and various pocket parks.
Long residential streets with mostly ranch-style homes line the West Little River neighborhood.

Vintage midcentury single-family homes
Most homes here are vintage midcentury ranch-style and cottages. Two- to three-bedroom properties range from the low $300,000s to around $700,000. Four- to five-bedroom homes cost between the mid $500,000s and the mid $900,000s. Driveways are standard, and many residents use grassy road verges for extra parking. “Honestly, [West Little River’s] one of the few areas left around the city where you’re going to get a decent-sized piece of land,” Deeb says. “You’re not getting that farther west in Hialeah or Westchester or West Miami where 5,000-square-foot lots are the norm.” Deeb also says the neighborhood’s lack of homeowners associations is a draw. “No one’s going to bother you about your RV or boat.”

Northside Shopping Centre and local good eats
Northside Shopping Centre is a two-story neighborhood mall for day-to-day shopping and light retail therapy. It has familiar stores like DD’s Discounts, Foot Locker, Dollar Tree and Presidente Supermarket. The mall is also home to The Village Flea Market, where local vendors sell trinkets, food, clothes, beauty services and more. Northside Shopping Centre is the only commercial strip in the neighborhood, but there are plenty of restaurants and shops around. Royal Castle is less than a mile away on the corner of Northwest 79th Street and Northwest 27th Avenue. The unassuming hamburger joint has been a community fixture since 1938. Molina’s Ranch is a popular eatery off East 8th Avenue, about 2 miles away. The family-owned restaurant has been serving Cuban classics in Hialeah since 1982.

Miami Central Senior High's football hall of fame
West Little River students attend Miami-Dade County Public Schools. Henry E. S. Reeves K-8 Center and Miami Central Senior High are graded C-plus on Niche. Madison Middle earns a C. All three schools are right in the neighborhood. In 2022, the Miami Central Rockets won the state championship for the fourth time in a row, concluding that season with a perfect record. The high school has graduated its fair share of NFL players, including Willis McGahee, Dalvin Cook and James Cook.
