About North Miami

Before development, the area was known as the Town of Arch Creek. In 1926, residents voted to incorporate as the Town of Miami Shores. Soon after, a 1931 Florida Supreme Court decision removed seven miles of Atlantic oceanfront from town limits. The community later that year renamed itself the Town of North Miami, then reincorporated as the City of North Miami on May 27, 1953.

Geographically, North Miami covers a compact footprint in northeast Miami-Dade County, roughly 10 miles north of downtown Miami. The city wraps around Biscayne Bay on the east, with major arteries including West Dixie Highway, Biscayne Boulevard, and the I-95 expressway. Miami Shores borders the city to the south, while North Miami Beach lies to the north. A council-manager government operates from City Hall on Northeast 125th Street. Downtown Miami sits less than 30 minutes south by car.
