Every ZIP Code in Miami Ranked From Best to Worst by a Real Estate Blog

Rankings-happy real estate site Movoto pulled out all the stops this week. It ranked nearly every ZIP code in the nation from best to worst. Of course, it's a real estate site, so the criteria for "best" really means something more like "nicest to live in." It also means the rankings tend to favor richer areas.

What's interesting, though, are the wild fluctuations in the rankings of Miami ZIP codes, reminding us once again of the inequalities that plague Miami-Dade. While one Miami ZIP made the top 50 (out of 28,061), several others landed near the bottom. In fact, ZIPs in Miami's top ten border ZIPs that landed in the bottom ten.

Here are the criteria Movoto used to determine its rankings:

Median Household Income (the higher the better)

Unemployment Rate (the lower the better)

Average Commute Time (the lower the better)

Median Rent (the higher the more desirable an area)

Median House Worth (the higher the more desirable an area)

High School Graduation Rate (the higher the better)

Families Below the Poverty Line (the lower the better)

And here's where almost every Miami-Dade ZIP code ranked. Interestingly, the site did not have enough data to include the main ZIP of Fisher Island, a noted billionaire enclave.
