According to surveys, the horse is one of the most loved animals in the world, along with the dog.

Over the centuries, horses have changed history.

Ever since man learned to domesticate them, they have been part of our civilization.

Even all the new technologies cannot undo them.

The Miami Police Department has an equestrian division that uses horses to patrol the streets and parks. In 2018, the Miami Police Department had 13 horses.

Today, the Miami Police Department boasted a new acquisition:

Here’s what they wrote

The work of a police officer involves many aspects. Building and maintaining police/community relations is vital, and the Mounted Patrol is an integral component of Community Policing. These renovated stables and workspaces will serve as a private, calm, and comfortable setting for our horses and where our Mounted Patrol police officers can house, groom, and train their equine partners. We are thankful for the philanthropic gesture extended by the Milton Family Foundation and their coordination with local community partners to make this possible. We are one community and together we can all accomplish more.

Comments poured in:

Any opportunities for 12 yo kids to volunteer at the stables?

I hope there is good security at night. Sure would hate to hear one was stolen & butchered for meat which has happened all over south Fla. in the past.

In the United States, more and more homeowners are facing serious problems for not meeting the „30% rule“ for housing costs, pixotab.com points out.

This problem results in a large number of families living beyond their means and being considered ‘poor’. Whether it’s due to high interest rates or choosing to live in expensive areas, affected homeowners face financial hardships that have long-term consequences.

According to an analysis by the Chamber of Commerce (US Census Bureau), more than 27% of homeowners are covered by this problem.

The consequences are particularly severe in major cities such as Miami, Los Angeles and New York, where 4 in 10 homeowners are considered „poor.“

Hialeah, Florida tops the top 5 cities with the most „poor“ homeowners, with 59.3% of them facing this problem.

In Los Angeles, California, that rate is 48.7%, and in New York City, it’s 45.3%. Miami and Hollywood, Florida, ranked fourth and fifth, respectively, with 44.6% and 44.3% „poor“ homeowners.

The root of this problem often lies in high housing costs, which include monthly mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance and utilities. With the median household income ranging between $64,386 and $122,032 in different cities, many homeowners are forced to spend a significant portion of their income on their housing costs.

The situation is also exacerbated by the high interest rates on mortgages, which make home loans unaffordable for many families. Combined with expensive housing markets in some areas, this results in heavy financial burdens for homeowners.

The government and stakeholders need to pay attention to this problem and focus on finding solutions to help homeowners manage their costs and live more financially sustainable.

More affordable mortgages, housing policy reforms and increased workers’ incomes are just some of the possible solutions to reducing the number of people struggling to afford housing.

Otherwise, the situation may worsen further and have long-term negative consequences for the economy and society as a whole.

Miami is one of the greatest cities in the world.

However, few know all its secrets.

In fact, no one knows them all because there are so many of them.

Did you know that there is a wonderful place in Miami that will remind you of Venice.

It’s not about the Grand Canal.

Venetian Pool: A piece of paradise in the heart of Coral Gables and one of the oldest pools in town!

The Venetian Pool is a historic public swimming pool located in Coral Gable, Florida. Completed in 1924, it was designed by Phineas Paist with Denman Fink.

The pool is fed by spring water from an underground aquifer and is refilled daily with over 820,000 gallons of water.

The pool features two waterfalls and grottoes for a fun experience for all swimmers. The Venetian Pool is one of the main attractions at Coral Gables and is built in the Mediterranean Revival style.

The opening hours of the Venetian Pool vary by day and season. According to the official website, the pool is open for visiting on the following schedule:

• Monday: closed

Tuesday – Friday: 11:00 – 17:30

• Saturday – Sunday: 10:00 – 16:30

The pool is closed on major holidays including New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Day, President’s Day, Thanksgiving, the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and Christmas Day. Sometimes the pool is also closed during the off-season. For more information, you can contact the pool at (305) 460-5306

What is the entrance fee to the Venetian pool?

The cost of admission to the Venetian Pool depends on whether you are a Coral Gables resident or not. According to the official website, the entry prices are as follows:

• For Coral Gables residents: $6.50 for adults and $5.50 for children ages 3 to 12

There are several ways to get to the Venetian Pool at Coral Gables from Miami Airport. One of them is to take bus number 37 from Airport Station to Douglas Road Metrorail Station. From there you can walk about 15 minutes to the pool. This option will cost you about $1 – $3 and take about 44 minutes.

Another option is to take a streetcar from the airport to Airport Station and then transfer to train number 2300 to South Miami Station Rail Southbound. From there you can walk about 20 minutes to the pool. This option will also cost you $1 – $3 and take about 45 minutes.

If you prefer a faster and more convenient way, you can take a taxi from the airport to the pool. It will cost you about $20 – $25 and take about 11 minutes. You can also rent a car, shuttle or limousine, but this will be more expensive.
