West Little River, Miami, Florida - EVERYTHING You Want to Know

Set foot in the quieter sections of the Metropolitan, within unincorporated Miami-Dade, and let the narrow, canopied residential streets, mid-20th-century single-family homes, and the presence of Little River, a historic waterway flowing east toward Biscayne Bay, mark the significance of West Little River — a long-established community with a strong Caribbean and African American influence.

Originally part of the City of Miami after its annexation in 1925, until it changed during the Great Depression, when Miami relinquished jurisdiction, and the area became county-governed, West Little River is a census-designated place covering 4.7 square miles of modest homes and apartment buildings, local schools, and pocket parks, with a limited number of neighborhood-scale commercial spaces peppered throughout. 

One of its defining features, the Little River Canal, forms part of its northeastern boundary.

We say "one of" because it's not the only thing that makes West Little River stand out!

You see, this unassuming slice has more 'tricks' up its sleeve!

Accessibility, for one, is something West Little River wears proudly, thanks to its location off Interstate 95 and less than 10 miles from the beach, putting you minutes from Wynwood, MiMo, and other top-rated Miami cities and tourist destinations.
