Kendall
South Dade's family-friendly suburban core.
Neighborhood overview
What it's like to live in Kendall
Kendall is the broad, family-friendly suburban heart of South Dade, stretching west from Palmetto Bay and Pinecrest toward the Turnpike. It is where many Miami families buy their first home or trade up to more space: planned communities, tile-roof single-family homes, and conveniences everywhere you look.
Kendall's strength is value and convenience. Shopping centers, schools, parks, and medical services are woven through the community, and the Palmetto Expressway plus Metrorail's Dadeland station make downtown reachable for work or play.
The daily rhythm
Practical and comfortable. Soccer fields full on weekends, plazas with every chain and local favorite, and a slower, safer rhythm than the coast. Kendall is Miami's home base.

Waterfront & outdoor access
The Dadeland area, Suniland Park, and a long list of village greens and community centers keep outdoor life easy. The bayfront parks of Palmetto Bay and Cutler Bay are 20 minutes east.
Getting around South Florida
Metrorail at Dadeland North and South, the Palmetto Expressway, and the Florida Turnpike put Kendall in the middle of everything while keeping it affordable.
