Hialeah Overview

Fresh and friendly Hialeah is a unique Miami homeplace only 15 minutes from downtown. Everyone falls in love with Hialeah. Generations of families make up this warm and welcoming northeast Miami municipality. It’s a community proud of its heritage and heartwarming way of life. Hialeah is a long-settled community yet with an energetic small business environment. It’s the classic early suburban Miami homeplace, grounded in strong family values and inspiring Hispanic-American culture. Incorporated in late 1925 with a population of only about 1,500, Hialeah has become the sixth largest city in Florida, with over 223,000 people. Hialeah is popular for its abundant recreational living for all ages and its relatively low cost of living (below the national average). The city features a wide variety of rental options in appealing neighborhoods to suit all lifestyles.

What is the history of Hialeah?

The most exciting story ever told of Gold Coast Glory has unfolded right here in Hialeah?  Hialeah means "High Prairie" in the native Seminole language. The history of Hialeah is a microcosm of the South Florida story. It’s about building a community where the grasslands meet the everglades, where native tribes once met arriving settlers. It’s about the development of the southeast US. By the early 1920s, a.k.a. “The Roaring ‘20s,” Hialeah was a main attraction for American elites looking for a subtropical experience and the thrill of betting at the famous race track. The Great Miami Hurricane of 1926 altered the course of the following years in the region, but progress in Hialeah marched onward. Through the decades, the city has provided the world with many celebrated spectacles. Hialeah Park drew more media focus than any other sports events, with its long line of legends living out globally famous competitive dramas at the historic venue for audiences of US presidents and other world leaders.

How is the weather in Hialeah?

Ahhh — the subtropics! All the lushness and vibrance of the tropics, with less heat and humidity. This is a subtropical paradise right here on the mainland USA. You won’t get cold here. No more ice storms, frigid winds, or shoveling deep snow. Bask in the warmth. Watch the palm trees sway. Put on your cotton shorts and T-shirt and have a pinã colada. Sink your bare toes in the white sand. That’s what it’s like here between the interior plains south of Orlando and the marshlands north of the Keys. Four seasons? Not really. In the sun-seeking renter’s capital of the world, the weather you can anticipate is more like this: In January, the average high is around 76°, and the low is about 59°. In February, the average high is around 78°, and the low around 62°. By March, the average high is around 81°, and the low is about 65°. Summers are a little warmer, with highs in the upper 80°s, lows in the mid 70°s, and lots of rain days. August averages can be up to about 91° with lows around 77°, and dropping steadily through the fall to average highs in the mid 70°s and lows around 62°. Invest in 100% cotton clothing, sunglasses, and flip-flops.

How do I get around town?
