South Miami is an independent city of about 12,000 residents, incorporated in 1927. It borders Coral Gables to the east and Pinecrest to the south, and the University of Miami campus sits along its eastern edge at Red Road. Before it took its current name, the town was known as Larkins, after an early settler who opened its first store and post office.
Its compact size works in its favor. A walkable downtown along Sunset Drive, quick access to US 1 and Metrorail, and established residential streets give South Miami a small town feel in the middle of the county.
