Worst things about living in Hialeah
Look, I love Hialeah, but let's be real about the downsides:
Public transit needs work
Winters are harsh
Not much to complain about honestly
Don't get me wrong, it's still a great place overall. But people should know what they're getting into.

For families, I'd recommend looking at Eastside. Schools are rated well and it's quiet.

Rent tip: look for places in fall. Prices drop and there's more availability.

Coming from New York, the cost of living difference is noticeable. Groceries and gas are slightly more expensive but housing makes up for it.
