With sea levels and student debt on the rise and fears of another recession around the corner, millennials in Miami aren’t exactly optimists when it comes to the possibility of owning a home anytime soon.

Private parking lot operators in Miami are a lot like telemarketers and loan sharks: No matter how good of a job they do, it’s still hard to like them.

When the history of Venezuela’s ongoing collapse is finally written, entire chapters will be dedicated to the crooks. Swindlers, scoundrels, and sinvergüenzas of all stripes — protected by a wall of state-sanctioned corruption that allowed them to siphon billions of dollars out of the country into private bank accounts around the world.

Stop if you’ve heard this one before: A once-affordable city likened to paradise undergoes a blistering development boom that forces longtime residents out of the neighborhoods they’ve called home for generations

The voice on the other end of the line sounded so thin, so frail, that at first Erika Williams didn’t recognize it as her son’s. It was only by the ten digits glowing on her iPhone — the number for the Flagler County jail — that she realized who was calling her February 4, 2019, a balmy Monday in North Florida.

The property at 420 Hibiscus Dr. — just off the MacArthur Causeway on the 0.1-percenter playground that is Hibiscus Island — was built in 1937.
