Miami Lakes Retirement Home

Despite its name, Miami Lakes Retirement Home is actually located in Hialeah's 33018 zip code, in the far northwestern corner of Miami-Dade County near the county's rural fringe closer to the Everglades than to the incorporated town of Miami Lakes itself. The 6-bed assisted living home sits at 16837 Nw 91st Ct in a newer residential pocket of this developing part of the county. Six licensed beds is Florida's smallest tier, generally meaning a small, consistent staff handles the household's day-to-day needs directly. This part of Hialeah has seen substantial new residential construction in recent years as the county's urban footprint pushes further west and north. A fair question on a tour is how the name relates to the actual location, and how established the home is in this newer part of the county.
