So,
you may be asking,
what is so special about Key Biscayne?
Now,
before you continue,
we must alert you to the fact that the
information you are about to read
comes from people who are extremely partial
to Key Biscayne. Actually,
we believe that Key Biscayne is the best
place to live not just in Miami,
not just in South Florida, not even in the
nation, but truly the best place
in this world. (We do have
facts to back up our views, and
we will gladly share those with you.)

We
have grown up here and
are now raising our families on the island
paradise. Home is where
the heart is, and our hearts, along with the
early Indians that first settled
here, beat to the rhythm of
"Bischiyano", the "Favorite Path of the
Rising Moon". A moonrise on Key Biscayne
is truly a sight to behold.
The
people of Key Biscayne
have created a unified community composed of
different cultures, languages,
and backgrounds.
|
All
residents have one thing
in common - our love for this island.
According to the U.S. Census
2000 figures, the population of Key Biscayne is
10,507.
This
number changes seasonally
as approximately thirty percent of the
property owners on the island paradise
enjoy our mild weather from about December
through April, and choose to
spend the warm summer months further north.

We at
Key Life Realty are
here year round. And we love it. |
|
We
love to hear the ocean
breezes in the palm trees housing parrots on
the beach. There is an underlying
and constant sense of community, unparalleled
safety, spacious green parks
with playgrounds and shaded bike paths.
We
cheer on each child as
they graduate from bicycle training wheels,
or as they learn to balance
on a skateboard or rollerblades.
|
We
love shouting a kind
greeting to a neighbor out in their front yard
as we pass by on our golf
cart or sharing a smile and a wave with the
other vehicles at a four way
stop sign. Our island firemen and
policemen are unquestionably some
of the best around who wave at our children
and take the time to show our
kids the shiny red trucks and emergency bells
and sirens. |
|
We
welcome each new neighbor,
we congratulate each new birth, and we grieve
together when a friend suffers
loss. It is the spirit of the people that
live here that make this
island what it is.
Key
Biscayne is simply what
dreams are made of.
