Residential living near the Magic City
Only a stone's throw from the Magic City of Miami, West Miami is a small, residential city that offers easygoing suburban living. "It's high demand for rentals," says Barbara Alvarez, a Realtor with Homes 4 You. "It's popular with people since it’s close to Coral Gables; they like being near that area." While being near the amenities of Coral Gables, including historic destinations like the Venetian Pool, is a treat in and of itself, being close to this community comes with another benefit. The mature, tropical greenery that Coral Gables is praised for doesn't begin and end with that area's borders; lush and vibrant verdure also stems into surrounding communities. Though West Miami certainly has a more city-suburb feel than Coral Gables — primarily due to smaller lot sizes — this community is packed with oak, palm and banyan trees, making it unique from communities farther north, closer to the airport.

Due to its proximity to downtown, homes in the West Miami area range from $600,000 to $3.5 million.

Access to the Tamiami Trail
A central location is another draw to West Miami. "It's very convenient and practical with all the highways close by," says Alvarez. "And it’s 15 minutes from downtown Miami." The Palmetto Expressway and the Dolphin Expressway, which connects to Interstate 95 due east, sit less than 3 miles from West Miami. Furthermore, U.S. Route 41, referred to by locals as the Tamiami Trail, runs right along the community's north side, making for easy commutes into the city. For farther travel, the Miami International Airport is a little over 5 miles north of West Miami.
Midcentury homes
Except for some apartment complexes on the west side, West Miami is largely occupied by HOA-free single-family homes. Many of which were built in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, so you'll find that ranch-style homes are the most popular build in the area. Architecturally, as is typical of the Florida vernacular, Spanish eclectic characteristics run rampant along these streets, such as arches, stucco siding, earthy tones and terracotta barrel roof tiles. That said, Minimal Traditional architecture and bilevel residences are blended into the area. Market prices for these homes range from the low $600,000s to $3.5 million. This vast range of prices is due to the addition of new construction homes, most leaning toward modern and contemporary styles. For $725,000, you can land an updated, 1964-built, four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom ranch-style home on a 5,720-square-foot lot.

Tamiami Trail has restaurants
For a quick bite, there are a few options off Route 41. El Mago De Las Fritas has been a local staple since 1984. This restaurant specializes in Cuban Fritas. If a shoestring potato-topped chorizo and beef burger sounds good to you, definitely stop by this local favorite. Next door, Happy Wine Calle Ocho has discounted wine, live music and delicious tapas. This shop and restaurant is popular for its festive atmosphere. While there aren’t too many commercial areas in West Miami, necessity retailers such as Publix and CVS are right in the community.
