Neighborhood Desk
Surfside
A small, quiet beach town between Bal Harbour and Miami Beach — forever marked by the 2021 Champlain Towers South collapse, and governed in its shadow since. Surfside is its own municipality, with its own government and its own records — never filed under City of Miami or county by mistake.
