Once the city united together, it has been on the path to prosperity. But at the end of the day, this region is a part of Miami-Dade County which makes it prone to natural disasters just like many other cities in the region. In addition to the threat of natural disasters, being a young city, it hasn’t undergone massive development as of recent times. In 2014, its aging pipelines that were in need of extensive repairs gave way and flooded an entire neighborhood. The event acted as the wakeup call and the city has been taking appropriate measure to address the issues ever since. As a resident of the city, it’s important to stay aware of the possible repercussions and be prepared for the worst.
