Florida may have led the nation
in adding new jobs last year, but Miami-Dade County's
unemployment is still higher than the national average
(above 7%). In a Miami Herald report, Governor
Jeb Bush said Miami's lagging unemployment rate was due
to the fact that Miami was "unique" because of
its high costs. He got that right. The city ranked 137
out of 150 places for housing affordability and 127 out
of 150 for cost of living. Living in the sand and sun
isn't cheap, apparently.
