What $1M buys across South Florida

Welcome to Miami’s Curbed Comparisons, a column that explores what one can rent or buy for a set dollar amount across various South Florida neighborhoods. Is one man's studio another man's townhouse? Let's find out!

While last week’s edition looked at homes for sale in Miami-Dade County hovering around the area’s median home value ($259,000), we’ve decided to broaden our search this week.

Today, we look at five homes for sale across all of South Florida with a $1 million budget. We start to the south in Coral Gables and travel all the way to Boca Raton.

Some other recent Curbed Comparisons:
