Both, along with other cities, areas, and neighborhoods, are located in Miami-Dade County, which covers a territory of about 2431 mi², with a population of more than 2.7 million inhabitants.
Miami-Dade County boasts a number of beautiful neighborhoods and small cities. Here is a guide to which areas and neighborhoods you must explore if you want to go on a comprehensive visit to Miami.
