One of Miami-Dade's more affluent cities, Coral Gables is known for being a throwback to the days of old when regal architecture combined with impeccable use of nature fused to create a stunning city panorama. Today this wealthy city is recognized as the "City Beautiful" and maintains a very rich history.

Since Coral Gables caters to individuals and families with relatively deep pockets, its collection of single family homes, gated communities like Journeys End and condominiums such as Gables on the Green provide optimum living accommodations with lots of square footage, usually within gorgeously natural settings.

Coral Gables is all about the ambiance and tranquility. The Biltmore Hotel is still located in the city and is one of the city's most popular historic attractions. For a more contemporary experience, residents usually visit Miracle Mile and the fairly recent Village at Merrick Park shopping mall.
