Area Guide

Niche Reviews Niche logo

The neighborhood of Brownsville sits just under four miles northeast of Miami International airport and seven miles northwest of downtown Miami. You can find a house for rent in Brownsville and have easy access through the Brownsville train station along with several Metrobus lines. Within easy walking distance of Brownsville station, locals positively rave about Lemon Peppers Miami for their signature lemon pepper wings and scrumptious lobster bites. Order these with a tall, cold glass of lemonade and some candied yams. For a great meal served with a smile, head a little further south on 27th Ave for a seafood lover’s delight at Crab Stop Miami. Crabs, conch, or crawfish top the bill dished up with roasted potatoes in garlic butter sauce.

Over all people are just misguided and wont change but don't stand we have to educate or self first then make change with love. but poverty has a whole of my environment. i wish not to live here but what can you do, sense i'm here i rather be the change or help the change in my environment reason for me applying for a scholar ship.

It's average. Art events are there, they just aren't big to the community as a whole.
