Living in NY for so long this is actually really affordable
Keep in mind I did this video and numbers with a cheap/affordable lifestyle. But yes compared to NYC is much less expensive.
The difference is Miami’s job market is no where as strong as NYC.
Yeah depending on your job as well though
Same I live in CA by SF and I rent a room for 1,400 bucks. yeah, Miami sounds very inexpensive.
Even Boston is more expensive, the avg rent here is 3k.
This NEEDS a post pandemic update⚠️🚨⚠️
Right shxt has gotten even WORSE!
I've been thinking about moving to miami for a long time now. This video cut my research time in half and is so inspirational. Thanks for taking the time out of your busy day to make this video for us
Hey Alexis! wow that is awesome to hear! I am glad it has helped you let me know If I can help you with anything else.
I lived in Miami for a year as a child; It was the happiest time of my life. I’m 18 now and dying to go back, haha. Anyway, I appreciate the advice, brotha!
Where are you now
Miami is a great city to be young hahaha
I make $5000 a month here in Memphis TN and u been thinking about moving to Miami! After watching this video I believe its possible for me
It’s possible!
Hey man! I live in Nashville, and I’m considering the same. My uncle has been in Miami for 20+ years now. I love it there. Message me if you want to connect on LinkedIn or something. I’m about to purchase a place and will be looking for a roommate!
Hey Everett! Sorry for the delay! Of course it is possible for you! pls let me know if you need help finding a nice spot! Good Luck!
Great video man. That’s encouraging to see that it’s not as crazy for a 1 bed as people make it out to be. 2021 I’m moving there!
Also, that intro is awesome. 💯
@@migueltalksmoney awesome brother! You will love it! and thank you
Just beware, rent for a 1/1 is much more closer to $1400-$1500
Did you move yet?:)
My cousin found a 2-bedroom, newly renovated apartment in Miami, near the Miami Dade College for only $1,1000. So for those of you who don't believe what Hans is saying, maybe look harder? I live in the Bronx and plan on moving with her as soon as possible. Super nervous but excited.
wow 2 bed for $1,100? thats nuts! enjoy Miami Britt!
Can you pleas the name of the building
I’m thinking bout moving there as well cuz I’m tired of cold weather, I’m an Uber driver so if it’s busy I’ll def do this
This is really on the cheap side. I've lived in Miami since 2011. I've had single bedroom apts in Kendall (suburb of Miami) Ive paid between $1,400 and $1,700/month for the apartments. That's nothing fancy. Cable and internet is about $120/month. Electricity is like $75/month. Car insurance $140/month. Tolls like $50/month. Car payment (varies) Groceries (varies) Entertainment (varies but is expensive in Miami..drinks and lunch for 2 on south beach? $120 easy) My suggestion..move further north like Orlando or the West Coast of FL, way cheaper!
Hey Weekend I 100% agree with your numbers. Those numbers and examples I made are at the cheapest cost but realistic ones. But your numbers are 100% accurate as well.
But it says it cost ummary of cost of living in Miami, Florida. Family of four estimated monthly costs: $5,543. Single person estimated monthly costs: $3,302
Insurance cost $150
Everyone forgets to talk about hurricanes every year there when everyone has to drive out of state and get a hotel for a week or two lol
I have been living here since 1999 and only once I had to go to my mother home in Boca Raton because I live on the beach. But yes many people do have to leave their homes
My family and I visited Miami in February this year and the traffic wasn't incredibly horrific from what I can remember. But I remember always having to pay for parking and we stayed mostly in the Miami beach area. Great video by the way!
Thanks so much Adalis! how did you enjoy Miami Beach? I actually have a video that talks about how Miami beach is my favorite neighborhood in all of Miami.
Living In Miami I love Miami Beach! Unfortunately it was a rainy weekend so we didn’t get to enjoy the beach. But it also isn’t my first time staying there or going to Miami. When I was younger we would go to Miami all the time! I hope to visit again after this pandemic
lol yeah in miami beach parking is a pain! glad you enjoyed the video! :)
Great! video. You gave a realistic view of the area. Please, make a video on all the places in Miami that anyone can walk to everything, without needing a car. Thanks
ohhh great idea Hector! thank you for commenting! :)
Living in London this seems super affordable to me.
Hey there! That is interesting I have no idea about London's cost of living! What I do know is that some areas are very affordable around Miami!
As a business owner I’m looking forward to coming and spending winters in Miami with my family. We’re looking at about 4-5months a year.
Currently for a 3 bedroom they are asking for $3,000-$4,000 and higher. A one bedroom is going from $1700-$2000. A studio $1,200-$1,500
Stupid country too expensive
So, with a salary of 6k someone could live very very nicely there! Awesome
Hey Dev! you will be just fine for sure!
That means I'll be rich
Where in Miami is there a studio for $1000 and not run down or in the hood? Seems unreal
Miami beach and other areas has studios for $1000, but of course not the best/ most updated. This is just a low budget living scenario but its 100% realistic.
I’ve lived in Miami my whole life, and recently helped my relative move and that seems unrealistic within Miami dade county. This seems like right on the poverty line, and prices have only gone higher.
You should definitely look at current rental prices on your own.
😂🤣🤣
I have to agree with the poster ,a quick search gave me 30 studios in miami Beach for under $1000 .just remember that companies don't pay shit in florida.
I need one too
Great video brother... moving soon and this was helpful.👍🏽
Thanks for that Chris! Anything you need Im right here
Thank you for being honest
my pleasure hope it has helped!
Super helpful and information Valuable! I was in Vegas/LA 10 years. Moved back "home" East for 1 year.
I have an itch to move again and cross fingers for next move. Was thinking of Santa Fe. Then Miami spoke to me. Visited South Beach many years ago. Hmm should consider Miami! This Bronx gal misses that warm lifestyle and all comes with it. Consider it for sure. Will bookmark your info! Thanks 💯😊 🙌🏾
Glad you liked the video! Miami spoke to everyone and it's very persuasive! hahaha
Wow, no wonder San Francisco, LA suffers so much from homelessness, you can work but to pay 2k to almost 4k a month for rent is simply ridiculous... Yet, the govement doesn't allow for rent control or any form of relief for hard working people...
Totally agree!
Here in Minneapolis I had a tiny studio that was only about 400 sq ft and I paid $900 a month. The costs seem really similar. The price of living is going up every where. The food here where it's always cold is also the most expensive I've ever experienced in my life. Looking to get out of these long winters. 😭
Hahah do you hear that? It's Miami calling for you!
Making 10 to 12 dollars a hour you shouldn't even entertain going to Miami
true, unless you have bigger plans.
Great vid, man. Thx.
thank you Larry
Great quality content. Subscribed. Thanks for the information.
Thank you for watching and the feedback!
Very impormative, thanks so much !
Glad you liked my video! Thanks!
Thank you for this video!!
Hello Mary! my pleasure I am glad you enjoyed it thank you for watching!
Hi thanks for your video . I’m a single mom looking forward to moving down there soon . This definitely gave me an idea of the amount of funds I’ll need . Which areas are more kid friendly or family oriented? Would I be better off getting a condo?
hey! im glad this video helped, keep in mind this is all on the lower end of things because live in Miami can get more expensive but im sure you got an idea. Hmm.. family oriented may be Hollywood, Aventura, Sunny Isles, Coral Gables and a few other areas. And it really depends on what you like, a home, townhome or condo. You can email me anytime if I can help
You should do a video on car vs uber in different situations in Miami love your videos!
Hey thanks so much! what do you mean? can you explain a little more :)
@@LivingInMiami Hi! Just different situations like is it better to take your car or take an uber if you go to the beach, going out at night is it better uber or car, different situation like that, in general how much is the difference between just riding Ubers or having a car, thanks!
There's no need to pay for cable when you can have IPTV for a fraction of the cost...
For New Yorkers it seems cheap but remember most jobs in Florida pay between 8 and 10 dollars an hour lol 😂 so you better have a good side hustle other wise you will be moving right back to where you came from
lol right about that or 2 jobs
Awesome video thanks for sharing this information
Thanks Lester! I appreciate it man!
Why is Miami so expensive? is the weather mainly? some parts of Miami even the so called nice parts are bit rundown and rough looking and does justify prices there
yea true. I mean its a top world destination, it has tons of super good things about it, I've traveled the states and dont think I can live in too many other places.
miami is expensive cause normal inflation rate but in miami instead of inflation of wages going up too companies want to pay low wages because we are the last southern state and cause a whole bunch of illegal immigrants come here to work for those low wages thinking it's way way better then their country which is why wages are so low hope the new 15 dollar minimum wage helps drive career wages up after that
You’re better off living in northern Virginia or Charlotte or Raleigh NC. Salaries are higher and cost of living is more reasonable.
@@barbaravyse660 Too country
Great video !!
thank you!!!
Lol try to live in Seattle . 2500-3000$ for 3-4 bedroom house up here and it rais 70% of the time . I pay 1900$ for 2 bedroom apartment
In DC, the absolute cheapest studio is 1400 per month 😭... that’s why I’m moving to Miami
needs a 2022 update
This seems like a bargain today in Miami.
Nothing can beat expensive in Paris, where a minimum good meal in a nice restaurant, can go from 30 euros to 70 euros +... , rent: in Paris you get a 28m studio for 1200...so MIAMI is good, really good :)
Nowadays it is the same. It's hard to find a nice studio for less than 1200 at least in the most popular areas. But yes, Miami is really good :) hahaha
What's the minimum wage in Paris?
This is quite helpful, especially for someone who is in a profession that doesn't pay much.
Glad you liked my video!
@@LivingInMiami yeah, I loved it! It gave me an honest perspective on what it would be like to live out there--something I really appreciate. Keep up the good work!
I’m in NYC so these prices are actually REALLY good. I can get a 3 bedroom for my 1-bedroom price here 🤣
hahaha wow! 😯
Wow
Love the videos. What song is that in the intro?
Very accurate source from the zumper, im from DC & yes DC is high but I knew San Fran was very high!!!! & NY, I now live in Chicago & coming from DC. Chicago felt on the "good prices" side & now I plan of moving to Miami & Chicago is just above Miami, its surprising that Chicago is higher than Miami, but in my case, it works out
$3500 to 4k per month pension will get you by in Miami, not very comfortable but livable...If you have a pension of $3k a month, once you find a part time job you can make it happen. There's people that live on way less and still make it... It's possible~
You forgot to tell them the quality of the apartment and the location for that price in Miami. Make that your next video. Lol.
yeah true but this is the lowest cost of living. You can not expect nothing nice or new for $1k a month. But yes I agree
As a Brit, $10 a beer strikes fear into my heart
Any normal bar its 4 or 5
LMAO
go to the strip club it's 30$ a beer
Living is Southern California those houses in Miami are half the price and twice the size
thats crazy I know homes overthere start at $1,000,000 for a 1 bedroom haha
Looking to move from nyc to miami (not south beach). Brickell or coral gables im interested in! Possibly open a martial arts studio down there also. Thx for this info
What are good side jobs in Miami to attain to make sure there are an excess amount if funds necessary to have comfortable living in Miami?
Why are the utilities so cheap in the US? I pay maybe 3x that in the UK.
So if you have a job that makes between 40k - 60k, do you think it would be an affordable move?
Hello Param! yeah for sure that more than half the people here im sure
You won’t be living anywhere cool though like the beach or anywhere near it. You’ll be in an older apartment in the suburbs.
Hello, thanks for your videos. Just a doubt. You said that you were paying 140$ per month for insurance, but you increased the total cost from 1180$ to 1220$.. is that a mistake?
yeah sorry maybe it was a mistake but you get the point
@@LivingInMiami Ah alright. Just to have it clear about the insurance price.
Miami perhaps sounds atractive but really it's very expensive when You consider needs to love, the insurance is hight Not only the Rent.
Real talk !
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Hey Hans, thanks for making the video. I'm a recent MLO, just curious if you think there's opportunities down there in the real estate game. My wife is Colombian, and we'd love to move to be in the beautiful sun in a deeply Hispanic community. Thanks!
So cool man...
So helpful
Thanks so much dude!
well, if you need condo with view on city and many space, of course its costable, but i am sure you can find something more less but decent, for decent price
Totally agree! Although market is super hot if you are patient you could find a great opportunity
@@LivingInMiami thx for advise. Love your videos about Miami, good work. I am willing to move to Miami to be fully and only in music industry, and catch some residency, as for me its the best place for music (being dj, producer, artist). Its kind of a moment for me, now (next 2 years) or never, as i want this all my life. So next year i am gonna do tour, like a vacation to visit first Miami to get real feeling of place, get visit some clubs and friends i have there and decide further. So when i will plan on moving, i think i would maybe start with some studio renting or small condo. Do you have advise which part of Miami should be better to avoid to live? And where are the best clubs, in which part, or like place that is more crowded with clubs/bars etc? Thx
this wack af aint no apartments for 1k in miami. it's MINIMUM 1.5k for a decent place... luxury places r about 1800+.
Studios for $1000 do exist all over Miami, maybe not the best ones but they do, I've lived in one before in Miami Beach
I have to agree with the CZcamsr on this. We've been searching heavily the last couple of weeks for a place in Miami Beach and there are plenty of places within his price range. Ive noticed they look rough on the outside and then are updated and clean on the inside. Perhaps its covid that is affecting the prices I am seeing, but he's on the money with what I see on Zillow right now.
Big facts. It’s not gonna be a decent place for 1k lmao
Me paying 130$ for insurance for my car that’s not even full coverage 💀 in nj lol
You think that’s high come to Miami I bet you at least pay double that !!! I pay 380 a month for a bmw 340 i !!
In ATL u can get a lot more house for your money
im sure man! I hear ATL is good place to live
True but Atlanta has changed a lot. A one bedroom in the heart of Atlanta is ranging from 1300 and up, all because of gentrification
12:45 - Well...My life style is cheap. I eat only raw and vegan food and use bike to go at anywhere. Take care of my "catdoughters" is the thing more expensive that I have, lolol. My hobbies are simple ike...biking tour (exploring cities), camping, play gitar, watch Netflix or Prime, reading and etc. Beside that live in a simple neighbourhood it would not be difficult to me. My actual reality it's already this way. So...I think I'd survive very well in Miami with a income around $ 2500, lololol
haha nice lifestyle! yes yes you may!
Problem with Miami is jobs pay like shit.
I agree compared to other cities yes!
That's why Miami is preferble home for retirees... a way more afforable than other major cities
That's correct! And there are really nice HOPA for a good price!
thank you, for the inf...
Hey Heberto! my pleasure I am glad you liked it!
How much for the Toll going to Crandon Park?🤔
haha true i think its $5
The per capita wage is 24k.
thank you Belky for that!
from a Miami insider as myself?!
-) Insurance is expensive, not just because bad drivers, but for State/County sanctioned INSURANCE FRAUD.
-) Monaco/NY/SF rent on Florida salary?!?! Nah!
as a proud Saguesero, that's why I left.
Sir what is average salary in Miami of graduates and how much average single person saves in Miami per year.
Hey Ammu! great question! I am not sure since every job has a different salary and every person has different expenses
My husband and I plan to move there in February we currently live in Jacksonville (not from here tho) I want to live in the downtown Miami area. We plan to rent for now. We have 3 children and want to be safe but also affordable do you recommend I get a real estate agent for that if so who? Don't mind living in a 2 bedroom until we increase income, please guide me in the right direction to look for a place please and thank you very much if you can.
Hi Toya sure I can help you. My contact info is all over my channel please reach out to me at anytime
any community government tax for trash, sewer system, cleaning the area at your building
This is def. Manageable, especially compared to nyc. Now how the hell do i get that green card?
Prices sure changed alot since this video was made.
in two years the increase was noticeable
I've used all the apartment apps....please show me the 2 bedrooms for 1800...I haven't been able to find those in decent spots, or any spots...please tell me what I'm missing.
Hey Jason! Actually the closest spot to Downtown Miami that you could find for that price is Hollywood and Broward County, of course
rent went so much up since then, those numbers are outdated, crazy
True! The market is just crazy!
There is no council tax or water bill? Especially if you rent trough a real estate agency.
Hi! Sorry I don’t understand
Excelente!!!👏🤝👍
Gracias Norka! Me alegro que te haya gustado! Abrazo grande!
Would you recommend relying on public transportation for everything?
Hello! hmmm... good question, depends on where in Miami you plan to live in. Some areas no way! you will hate your life. but some areas like; downtown, brickell, miami beach and edgewater/midtown can be fine with no car.
I´m planning to move back to miami next year, I was born there but because of certain circumstances, I grew up in Argentina. I´ve been saving for a couple of years, and still am, probably my budget would be at max 5k. Do you thing that´s an ok number to start with? Last place I lived was sweetwater. Thank you for your time.
Hey Kevin! I'm from Argentina as well and I know saving money there can be tough but I know you got this. Do you mean $5k total to start living here? like moving here with just $5k to your name?
@@LivingInMiami Thank you for responding.
Yeah, as you said, saving in dollars here is a total nightmare. Right now I have 3k saved, but with some effort, I could go up to 5k. I'm planning to move to Miami to start a new life there
@@kevincurbelo4725 I'm not from Miami, so I'm not the best person to ask. But I wouldn't move to Miami with that amount of money. $5k is only a couple months worth of living. If you're moving there without a job, I can't imagine that there are any places that would rent to you. Of course, if you have family there that you can move in with that changes things.
I plan to bagpack Miami for 2 month on the cheap! Would 4K dollars be enough? Thanks
Hey James! I never backpacked Miami since i always lived here. But I am guessing a hostel would be cheap and the rest is for food and going out so yeah should be fine with that! enjoy man!
I live in Toronto. This sounds cheap. 😅
You are right Dom! Compared to other big cities, Miami is not one of the most expensive.
Are these prices still true at this time? I find the prices are much higher now.
Honestly the prices have raised a little the market is super hot right now so houses are overpriced
Yeah this comment is going to be like all the others, but as someone living in the Boston area, 250k for a condo gets you a run down 1BR/1BA. Condos in Miami even under 200k look dope.
I am considering moving down there in 2022 and would be looking to buy something. Should I hit you up on your KW page?
whats up Rich! if you have facebook or Instagram add me there its better! I appreciate it
One Bedroom in DC is 2200
interesting, in the best area? or average?
@@LivingInMiami average in the city, Navy Yard, Shaw or Upper Northwest it’s even higher
I thought living in Zurich is expensive but Miami beats all.
NYC , California and other parts of the USA are alot more pricey.
Wages in Switzerland are good and taxes are lower than in the United States. Wages in Miami Florida are cheap, I think, starting from only ten dollars, and a high living studio is more than a thousand dollars
I noticed your nice dog in the video. I want to move to Miami but I hear about bsl laws. Will anyone give me a hard time with my staffy? He looks like a small pitbull. Thanks
Is anywhere we can find apartments under 1000$ for two person near brickell ?
Hey Kanticha! Actually no, you need about 1800$ to start talking.
Im thinking about migrating from The Netherlands to Miami. Im not very wealthy so I dont think a oceanfront house would be an option. But even a decent house walk distance near the beach are still expensive as fk. Im a maintenance painter and I wonder if there is work in that business around Miami?
I just moved out of Miami: Paying 2500-3000 rent, driving 2-3 hours a day for work, and having to deal with so many issues with safety, prices and people's nastiness has driven me out of there. I could not make it anymore; Miami is about to explode. I have never seen so much misery and crime. For the last 6 months, I have been seeing entire families with kids begging for change in traffic lights. Crime is off the roof and people are cramping to afford rent. 2-3 families in 2-bedroom apartments are the norm now. People rent beds for day sleepers, sofas to newcomers, and U-hauls in parking lots where people are living for 20 bucks a day. Can't even find a U-Haul to move out of there because of it. Hialeah, Cutler Bay, Naranja, Florida City, and even Kendall or Brickell are common places where you see poverty and desperation in the streets. Approach any woman anywhere and listen to them straight out asking for 200 bucks "to pay rent" in exchange for a "date". Straight up prostitution from normal working people. I worked in South Beach for the last 2 years and even there you see the decay. I know so many families moving or already moved out and full businesses leaving the area. I left almost a month ago and my boss is calling me daily to go back until they find a replacement because no one can take my job. Why? they don't pay enough, and the newcomers are all wealthy New Yorkers that won't work for him.
Miami, you got what you deserve.
wow
Thank you for this video. I live in Winter Park...Colorado! It’s a resort town but I would love to live by the beach. Other expenses to be considered are the ones related to having a pet (and it’s size, breed and age).
Thanks for watching Irene! That is a expense to consider you are right!
Do you know anyone that is versed in Low Income Senior Housing in Miami/Hialeah area? Thanx❤
Hey Paloma I actually do not, but I know there are a few 55+ communities :)
Man bro I have to move there what's the crime like I know it's horrible
Honestly I grew up in Miami and neither have I nor my friends experienced crime. I am sure there is crime like anywhere else.
@@LivingInMiami You and your friends have been blessed brother
6.000 p m
thanks, but you need to update your video .
Living in Los Angeles and Orange County this is super doable jeeeez
Yeah! People usually think Miami is more expensive than It really is
Where did you get prices? Housing is more expensive then ever. Unless you are looking for a location in the Everglades with alligators
I watched 2 of your videos. Your information is great, but the music overlay is hideous. Not watching any more. Not subscribing. If you had videos of only the talking, without the music, I could watch them all.
Thank you Ralph for your feedback. I will keep that in mind for future videos.
Miami will take all your money if you let her. But this is Paradise bro! Hot, Humid, Sunny and Green!
Hahah that's SO true! The perfect weather for a great place ;)
Damn $20 for a burger??? Wth no thank you
haha 😅
This isn’t that bad at all compared to the U.K.
Thanks you! didn't know that!
There is no where to live there because nothing is available everything
that's correct! Market is being super tough right now
