Why Miami's Geography is AMAZING

anyone else from miami watching this video? it makes me sad that we're always deleted from every single sea level rise map. its ok, we'll just grow gills. MIAMI 305 FOREVVERRRR

[@miamiisyours]

Don't worry man. If there was really a risk of sea level rise destroying Miami, they wouldn't keep building high rises here.

[@renechang2406]

It has a great location but it was certain entrepreneurs who upon arriving started to change the image, infrastructure and logistics to develop into an international city that it is now. Before certain groups moved in. It was still a sleepy town. A diamond in the rough with mostly laid back retired types.

[@figmentofurimagination457]

Florida is well equipped to deal with sea-level rise and hurricanes so chances are close to 100% of the state (including Miami and the keys) will still be here forever

[@ryanguilbert3425]

Not from what I've seen, in my 15yrs living there

[@bruhbutwhytho]

Evidence?

[@figmentofurimagination457]

@@bruhbutwhytho There is no evidence because nothing major has happened. Until then, the state will continue business as usual. Besides, there are rumors Miami might build a flood wall if necessary.

Thanks, what stop are you talking about?

[@dispergosum]

Mostly just the lack of an outro after the final summary

[@RocketGator05]

@@YTHistoria Bro are you drunk? Miami was named after the native tribe Miami? The Miami are from Ohio and were forced to move to Oklahoma. Prior to our city being named Miami, When the Brickell's arrived, it was Fort Dallas. The natives to this area were the Tequesta. If I remember correct Miami is a Seminole word that translates to river with a big mouth or big mouth river. Hialeah, another Seminole word, translates to "big prairie". Ever heard of the Miami Circle? Since the discovery of that site it was made law that you have to excavate whenever you tear down a building in downtown to rebuild. They found that there was an ancient city underneath the city of Miami. The Seminole and Miccosukee are runaway Creeks and slaves from Georgia and Alabama. Fun Fact: When the US govt recognized the Seminole Tribe they ignored the Miccosukee so the Miccosukee said "aight we're gunna talk and trade with Cuba" That didn't blow over too well and the US govt finally recognized them.

Great video but slight correction to your intro -- Singapore has developed in far less than 100 years. Singapore only gained independence in 1965 and at the time was poor, underdeveloped, and lacked any natural resources.

[@jlpack62]

Miami has a tropical climate, not a subtropical climate. Just check its Köppen classification.

[@Architect98]

No, we have a subtrotropical climate because we’re located north of the tropical cancer

[@jlpack62]

@@Architect98 You are incorrect. Look at the Koppen climate map. The Koppen Climate map doesn't care where you are. It cares what sort of climate you have. This is how California can have a Mediterranean Climate while certainly not being there.

Idc what people say, Miami and (especially)key west is carribean. Its the closest you’ll get to the carribean without leaving USA. Bahamas is LITERALLY next to us and Cuba is LITERALLY below us.

Not one mention about sea level rise?

[@Yarmox]

South Florida and most seaside municipalities can build faster then that water is rising, but between pictures from 1970s and now of the shoreline dont show too much different. Supposedly its around 5 inches of growth.

[@jimmywest8684]

@@Yarmox idk, the deconstruction of that condo in seaside was pretty fast.

[@Yarmox]

@@jimmywest8684 you mean Surfside? That building was built with really shoddy construction by people that funded the Miami shoreline at the time with drug money. The maintenance and code that should’ve addressed its long time corrosion in the garage was never done. I assume youve never been to Florida.

[@RocketGator05]

Ever heard of South Ridge in South Miami or Pine ridge in Broward? There's a thin narrow ridge spanning the length of the eastern shore of Florida from Around Cocoa Beach to Florida City. East of it is beach and brackish water, West of it is the Everglades, both of which were historically inundated with floods and standing water. Developers, Big Citrus and Big Sugar destroyed the natural ecosystem getting the urban sprawl you see today.

[@BTman58]

So no talk of how Coke a Cola help to build Miami?🤣

[@robm4469]

Cocain drug lords. Sea level rise and hurricanes.

[@robm4469]

It's location as a gateway city has also been a curse of obstacles too. There is hurricanes sea level rise and floods of immigrants from many very poor coutries near by. The deadly murder epidemic from the cocaine drug lords of the 80,s is one example. Miami is no walk in the park bro beleive me.

[@Forgoneconclusion.]

Public Transportation? NO! Busses that run every 30 minutes are not reliable enough for people to depend on who have to work. Tri rail is more reliable with time than Brightline, which has many accidents because the people in those areas aren't used to new train track crossings. Brightline is a very loud and rickety and you can hardly walk down the isle to get to the bathroom because of that, being over priced doesn't help them either. English speaking only is slowly being marginalized to where 70% of all jobs you need to speak Spanish too. So if you are of Hispanic descent and not Afro-Hispanic with that, you'll be fine, you'll do even better if your str8 out from a Latin communist country too.
