Brickell is a high-end neighborhood and a major financial district located in Miami, Florida. Located just 10 to 20 minutes from all the most important areas like Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Downtown Miami and the\u00a0Miami International Airport<\/a>, the Brickell neighborhood is considered by many one of the best areas to live in. It is a small neighborhood with only 1.19 square miles (3 square kilometers) but don\u2019t let that fool you, it is also the most dense in terms of population since it is comprised of hundreds of skyscrapers and high-rise buildings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Brickell zip codes are 33129, 33130 and 33131.\u00a0<\/p> If you are not familiar with its location, here is an easy way to remember it: Brickell is a neighborhood within the City of Miami, Miami is a city within Miami-Dade County, and Miami-Dade is a county in the State of Florida.\u00a0<\/p> Click on this map of Brickell Miami to see Brickell’s location.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Resting along the ocean line, Brickell enjoys warm weather all year long, much like the rest of Miami.The weather all year round is comfortable, so don\u2019t worry that you\u2019ll have to stop your plans because of a snowstorm or something of sorts. Winter months, like January, will go as low as 59\u00baF, which is just the perfect temperature to wear that knit sweater or those knee-high boots you keep in your closet the rest of the year. When in summer, it\u2019s Miami in full-swing, with vivid and strong sunshine, rain, wind and temperatures that tend to rise above 90\u00baF.<\/p> And yes, we all know that Florida gets hit by hurricanes, but don\u2019t let this stop you: Brickell area is full of modern buildings and skyscrapers built compliant to South Florida\u2019s Building Code. This means that they\u2019re designed to withstand wind speeds of 120mph and faster, typical of the most threatening hurricanes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t There\u2019s plenty of things to do in Brickell that\u2019ll keep your body and soul satisfied, daily and nightly. Like in any major city, there is an area where most of the action is and that is Brickell to Miami. Brickell City Centre, for example, is a super chick entertainment centre that offers high-end fashion and accessories shops, restaurants, bars and even its own cinema. The best part? It\u2019s walking distance from residential buildings like Rise Brickell City Centre and Reach Brickell City Centre. <\/p>\n If you\u2019d prefer to keep in touch with nature, Brickell\u2019s also got a handful of parks where you can go for a run and breathe some fresh air, while still being close to your office or home. Simpson Park, the region\u2019s largest green area, takes care of some endangered plant species. It\u2019s a really refreshing view amidst all the building that are around it, Brickell View West and Le Parc at Brickell, to name some.<\/p> And also, let\u2019s not forget what Brickell\u2019s main trait is: being a financial area. This means economic activity it\u2019s pretty strong and thriving. It\u2019s the dream neighborhood if you want to live near your office and, because of Miami\u2019s touristic nature, still be able to enjoy an entertaining atmosphere with lots of fun things to do.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Think of Brickell as a mini Manhattan, with all the diversity, commerce, growth and plus a much nicer weather. Brickell is also a great place of culture, being in the vicinity of P\u00e9rez Art Museum Miami and the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science. The Adrianne Arsht Center, where you can enjoy Broadway musicals and the American Airlines Arena are also in close proximity to enjoy sports and famous singers concerts.<\/p> In short, Brickell has everything you\u2019d wish for in a city: a new, modern infrastructure, a growing, multicultural young population (but also with traditional families in the outskirts!), it\u2019s own efficient public transportation system that takes you to the city\u2019s most important spots: the metromover (and it\u2019s free!). And, of course, let\u2019s not forget that it\u2019s still Miami, so all the beach-fun it\u2019s in the air.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Brickell is a fairly new area, and it\u2019s not always been the way it is now. Back in 1871, William and Mary Brickell settled in the area and established their home and a trading post. Yes, that\u2019s where the neighborhood got its name from. Thanks to the Miami River and Henry Flagler\u2019s railroad, the area developed quickly, and real estate held great value, much like the present day. Brickell started to become a place for rich people to settle and buy properties, which served as the ground for its current financial area state, however, its properties were mostly used as escape-from-the-cold homes for people from the north of the US.<\/p> It wasn\u2019t until the 1980\u2019s that Brickell started to really get urbanized. One of the first ever luxury condo buildings to be built was the iconic Atlantis. Now the area is full with other amazing towers like Bristol Tower or the Santa Mar\u00eda.<\/p> Since then, Brickell has done nothing but grow and expand. It\u2019s now full of skyscrapers that are either hotels, residential towers, or office buildings. It is certainly a blooming area who\u2019s yet to see its better days to come!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Brickell Key it\u2019s an artificial island that\u2019s as small as 0.162 square miles yet still serves as home for more than 2,000 people. Think of it as an exclusive gated community of condo buildings like Asia Brickell Key<\/a> or Carbonell Condo<\/a>. Brickell Key even got its own park and a walking path around the island! Though it\u2019s mostly a residential island, a handful of restaurants, bars and stores are located here, too, as well as private schools. The famous Mandarin Oriental Hotel has its house in Brickell Key.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Though the place is packed with young professionals, this does not mean there aren\u2019t any options for families with young children or for students. Brickell area has one public elementary school: Southside Elementary<\/a>, and three private: First Presbyterian International Christian School, Gordon Day School, and Prima Casa Montessori School. As for colleges, Florida\u2019s International University\u2019s downtown campus is located here. Miami\u2019s main library is also a few minutes away, so knowledge will never be far if you choose to move to Brickell.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Certainly, Brickell\u2019s top service (or at least the most striking one) it\u2019s the metromover, which is free of cost and can get you quickly and safely through the neighborhood and Downtown Miami. It conveniently stops every few blocks so you can drop off wherever you want and you\u2019ll probably be a few walking distance from your final destination. Aside from the metromover, the metrorail and the public bus system are both pretty user-friendly options to move around the city. The metrorail even has a straight line to the airport!<\/p> As for hospitals,\u00a0 the world-known\u00a0Jackson Memorial Hospital<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0University of Miami School of Medicine,<\/a>\u00a0is only 4 stops in the train or 10 minutes driving. The Mercy Hospital<\/a> in Coconut Grove is also a few minutes from Brickell. Both are very complete health centres that will attend to your medical needs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t A lifestyle with so much to offer like the one in the ever-developing, multicultural Brickell has also a tantamount to ask for. You do not have to be a super billionaire to live in Brickell, but if you\u2019re on a tight budget you might also want to consider other more economic options. According to niche.com<\/a>, the average rent price for living in Brickell is $2,103. As for buying, you can get relatively cheap condos for under 300k in\u00a0Four Ambassadors Towers<\/a>, and also extremely luxurious penthouses with prices over $4,000,000 at the\u00a0Four Seasons Residences<\/a>.<\/p> Certainly, housing it\u2019s the most expensive part of living in Brickell. Everything else it\u2019s around the standard of the area. The average house income in Brickell is about $79,174.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t It\u2019s hard to pinpoint the exact amount of people that live in Brickell. The last official census counted 31,000 people in 2010, and it\u2019s pretty safe to assume that number has only grown since then.<\/p>Where is Brickell Miami?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
