Is this area kind of a waste land? Looking to move to Miami and thinking I’ll want to live in brickell or midtown and want to spend some time before deciding/ moving but the only reasonably priced rentals/airbnb are in this area or south beach. This is at least between the two but seems like not much going on?

That’s the seventh circle of hell my friend.

It is but the metro is really easy to use and get to Brickell.

Depends if you will be going to Brickell more or the beach. South beach is probably safer and more walkable.

I honestly really like South Beach. It's quieter for sure, but I'm not much of a partier so it works well for me. And yeah like they already said, the metro is right there so it's super convenient if you're going out!

The area you highlighted is hit or miss by block or even within blocks, but it is developing and getting better. I believe Miami World Center is within that circle, but I don’t know that apartments there would be any more affordable than midtown or Brickell

Have you considered Coral Gables or Coconut Grove? (since you mentioned you aren’t a partier)

Depending on where you are moving from, restaurant options in Miami might disappoint you, doesn’t matter if you live Downtown, Brickell or Gables/Grove

Don’t move there

Not safe

I’m in SoBe on the bay side facing downtown and it’s a great area. More residential, chill relaxing vibe, and everything is walkable.

Has anyone left big 4 or other PA firms tax transaction service groups for industry (or know of anyone)? What was the role and salary bump, how are annual bonuses/raises in industry, what is a typical work week (hours) like? I don’t think I can take this always on just to stay afloat life much longer. For context I am considered a high performer, am near the top of the salary band at my level and have a great supporting network at Deloitte. It’s just not worth it to have zero personal life.

I don’t work then past 5pm or anything out of the ordinary for this time of the year. I am so grateful!
