Brain drain is a much-talked about issue in the region, as many Miamians believe the region is losing its young people and graduates to larger cities, like New York & Los Angeles, and leading tech hubs. Check out our recent report. https://t.co/MNmc5mzPkP #MUFI

[Miami Urban Future Initiative @MIAUrbanFuture]

The members of Greater #Miami’s service class take home a median #wage of just $26,532 per year. That’s lower than the national median service-class wage of $27,130, which includes much smaller metros that tend to pay less across the board. https://t.co/ffSI3mfLWl #MUFI #FIUCARTA

Miami faces a deep crisis of #housing unaffordability. Six in 10 employed adult residents of Greater Miami are housing cost-burdened, meaning they spend more than 30% of their incomes on housing—the highest rate of any large metro in the nation. #MUFI #FIU https://t.co/gcl7Tqibsd
