Miami-Dade County

Miami-Dade County is part of the southeast Florida region along with Indian River, St. Lucie, Martin, Palm Beach, Broward, and Monroe counties. Miami Dade County has 35 cities and incorporates many different geographical areas. The north, central, and east regions are heavily urbanized, with many large skyscrapers and a dense population. The southern region of Miami-Dade County is sparsely populated and is the heart of Miami-Dade's agricultural economy. The western region of the county includes the Everglades National Park and is inhabited only by a tribal village. The county is home to around 2.5 million people, making it the most populous in Florida and number seven in the country.

Major industries for this county are tourism, international trade, international banking, and transportation. Top public employers are Miami-Dade County Public Schools, Miami-Dade County, the Federal Government, Florida State Government, and Jackson Health Systems. Major private employers include the University of Miami, Baptist Health South Florida, Publix Supermarkets, American Airlines, and Precision Response Corporation.

The county's seat and largest city is Miami. Miami's close proximity to Latin America and the Caribbean makes it the center for international trade with those areas. The city?s population is 70% Hispanic. The concentration of Latin American businesses and international banks in the city has given it the nickname ?Capital of Latin America?. PortMiami acts as one of the largest cruise spots in the world. Miami International Airport is one of the busiest ports of entry for foreign travelers and handles the most international air cargo of any airport in the country.
