"There's never one sunrise the same or one sunset the same." (-Carlos Santana)
It's hard not to be drawn in by the peace and beauty that the name alone of this town evokes. And luckily, Sunset doesn't disappoint. Sunset, FL is a small, secluded spot in Miami, where people go for something a bit quieter and cozier than what you can find on South Beach. It's a suburban community -- but its population is very young (the median age is about 29). It's also a Spanish-language haven, where more than 70% of the population speaks Spanish as their first language. As one of the more affordable neighborhoods in the Miami area, this is a great spot for young families to go if they want a place in the area but don't want to pay beachfront prices.

Renting an Apartment
Sunset doesn't have neighborhoods -- it is a neighborhood. The area caters to families, so finding 2 bedroom apartments for rent is no problem. If you want complete luxury, you can find all-utilities paid condominiums in quiet communities close to the beach. However, a lot of these don’t allow pets, so you may find yourself choosing between the plush life and the plush dog.
This town is packed with a variety of choices in apartment complexes and apartment homes. The rent ranges from high priced homes to less expensive apartments, but anything here will be more affordable than beachside communities or Miami itself. It is not hard to find what you want, because, as a tourist hot-spot, properties abound, and they cater to a huge range of potential renters. $$
What Makes Sunset So Special
If you live in Sunset, you're most likely a fan of sunshine, the outdoors, and water sports. People here take advantage of the beaches and waves in Miami -- they surf, lounge in the sun, waterski, and are generally active people. There is a huge multicultural population in the area; it's welcoming to people of every nationality. So come here to meet a diverse community and soak up the culture (if you speak Spanish already or are looking to pick it up, this is a great choice!), and, of course, to soak up the sun.
