Winter in Miami Beach
While many of us dream of a white Christmas, once the festive season is over, the snow and sleet remain with nothing to power us through the dark days of winter. Thoughts turn to warm beaches and the exquisite feeling of sand between our toes. If these feelings return season after season, it may be time to consider a winter property in stunning North Beach, Miami Beach, where the average winter temperature is in the 70s. Many South Florida natives only have a winter sweatshirt to brave any cold temperatures that typically clear up within a few hours or days. Besides dreamy winter temperatures, North Beach has so much more to offer, including a vibrant culinary scene that has ranked Miami number three in the best cities for foodies. Sit down or grab food to go and explore North Beach’s outdoor malls, outdoor food halls and outdoor music events like the North Beach Bandshell.
Miami Beach Community
International buyers have made Miami Beach the most searched for American city. Foreign buyers know the turquoise beaches and welcoming communities of North Beach are the perfect backdrop for their second homes. Miami Beach residents spend so much time outside of their homes exploring all the amazing events and activities that Miami Beach has to offer that it is easy to make new friends in this great city. Considering that Miami Beach has more than 512 acres of public parks for golf, tennis, soccer, basketball, volleyball, swimming, baseball, softball, picnics, BBQs, etc., it is easy to see why staying at home is not the best option. The North Beach neighborhood has 202.75 acres of recreational space alone!
Sports
Frigid states like New York, Illinois and Minnesota range from 10 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit in colder months. It is no wonder Miami Beach is the top destination for migrating New Yorkers. More than 30,000 Big Apple residents migrated to Miami between 2011 and 2015, according to the US Census Bureau. Winter activities in New York can include shoveling the driveway and putting chains on automobile tires. While some brave the frigid temperatures to go snowboarding, the fun can only last a short time to prevent injury or sickness. In North Beach, the only limit to winter activities is choosing the ones you want to discover/explore first. Instead of searching for something to binge watch, go diving or snorkeling. Take a kayak out to one of the many dog-friendly beaches for Fido to have the adventure of a lifetime, or lounge in the sun as a tropical breeze invites you to leave thoughts of winter far behind/on the shoreline. Leave the snow shoveling to those back home.
Fashion
No matter how well you have been able to stick to your diet over the holidays, abstaining from second helpings and limiting carbs, no one is able to tell under a thick winter coat and all the layering that comes with trying not to freeze to death. In North Beach, the only layers required to step outside are stylish sunglasses and a hat. No one is wearing thermal underclothing, and many have to pause to remember what it feels like to put on more clothes to go outside. This lack of heavy clothing is part of why South Beach, Miami Beach was named the sexiest neighborhood by Thrillist.
Social media
Nothing will induce envy more than a great beach selfie during the winter. While you may have to guess which of your friends is buried under winter layers, you will be instantly recognizable. When they show off their matching Uggs and hat, you can post a photo on every platform of your freshly pedicured toes in Havianas. Share a photo of an ice-cold beverage instead of icy roads, a sandcastle rather than a snowman, and a gorgeous sunset instead of a gray sky.
Peace of mind
Purchasing a winter property is great for your portfolio and well-being. Most residences are half the price of those in New York City. The median price for a home in North Beach is $585,000. In NYC, it is upwards of $1 million. In addition to the balmy temperatures and great prices, there is a sense of community in North Beach. There are expansive green spaces, Caribbean blue ocean waters and a wealth of indoor/outdoor activities to do.
The only winter blues you will find in North Beach, Miami Beach, are the turquoise water and clear skies. Explore your options for stunning winter residences that will fit your budget. Call Urban Resource today to leave shoveling and layering to someone else.
