Miami, city in Florida. The seat of Miami-Dade County, Miami is located at the southeastern corner of the United States near the tip of the Florida peninsula. Its climate is marginally tropical, with hot, moist summers and warm, drier winters and an average annual temperature of about 24° C (76° F). Situated along the Atlantic Ocean, Miami grew rapidly because of its resort and recreational opportunities. Since 1980, however, a more diversified economy has emerged in the city and metropolitan region. Miami's economy is increasingly international in its orientation; the city's connections to Latin America are particularly vital.Microsoft® Encarta® Online Encyclopedia 2001
