Aventura
, Florida
From Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia
This article is about the section of Miami
Beach known as South Beach. For more options
see South
Beach (disambiguation).
Aventura is a city located in northeastern
Miami-Dade
County, Florida. The city name is from
the Spanish
word for "adventure,"
and was named "Aventura" because that was
the name of the original group of condominiumdevelopments
in the area. The name predates the well
known mall (Aventura
Mall) built near the condominium developments.
According to the U.S Census estimates of
2006, the city had a population of 30,027.[1]
Most of what would later become the City
of Aventura was initially developed during
the late 1970s and into the 80s as a high-rise
residential area by Oxford
Development Company, when the area was
still mostly swampland
known as "Biscayne Gardens". Some
of the Miami area's tallest and most prestigious
condominium towers
are located there.
Aventura is located at 25°57'52"N,80°8'9"W
(25.964345, -80.135818).GR1
According to the United
States Census Bureau, the city has a
total area of 9.1 km²
(3.5 mi²).
7.0 km² (2.7 mi²) of it is land and 2.1
km² (0.8 mi²) of it (23.08%) is water.
Aventura has a tropical
climate.[2]
The city does experience cold fronts from
November through March, however most of
the year is warm and humid, and the summers
are reminiscent of a true tropical climate.
In addition, the city sees most of its rain
in the summer (wet season) and is mainly
dry in winter (dry season). The wet season,
which is hot and humid, lasts from May to
September, when it gives way to the dry
season, which features mild temperatures
with some invasions of colder air, which
is when the little winter rainfall occurs-with
the passing of a front. The hurricane
season largely coincides with the wet
season.
In addition to its sea-level elevation,
coastal location and position just above
the Tropic
of Cancer, the area owes its warm, humid
climate to the Gulf
Stream, which moderates climate year-round.
A typical summer day does not see temperatures
below 75°F (21°C). Temperatures in the
high 80s to low 90s (30-35 °C) accompanied
by high humidity are often relieved by afternoon
thunderstorms
or a sea
breeze that develops off the Atlantic
Ocean, which then allow lower temperatures,
although conditions still remain very muggy.
During winter, humidity is significantly
lower, allowing for cooler weather to develop.
Average minimum temperatures during that
time are around 59°F (15°C), rarely dipping
below 40°F (4°C), and the equivalent maxima
usually range between 65 and 75 °F (18-24
°C).
Aventura receives abundant rainfall. Most
of this rainfall occurs from mid-May through
early October. It receives annual rainfall
of 58.6 inches (146.5 cm).[3]
The South
Florida metropolitan area, which includes
the cities of Miami,
Fort
Lauderdale, and West
Palm Beach, is the second largest metropolitan
area in the world after Tokyo
that receives regular cyclonic
activity[citation
needed]. Hurricane
season officially runs from June
1 through November
30, although hurricanes can develop
beyond those dates. The most likely time
for Aventura to be hit is during the peak
of the Cape
Verde season which is mid August through
the end of September.[4]
As of the censusGR2
of 2000, there were 25,267 people, 14,000

18 to 24, 26.5% from 25 to 44, 23.6% from

age or older. The median age was 53 years.
For every 100 females there were 80.2 males.
For every 100 females age 18 and over, there
were 77.9 males.
The median income for a household in the
city was $44,526, and the median income
for a family was $59,507. Males had a median
income of $50,791 versus $37,682 for females.

shopping center located in the center of
the city. The city also has its own exclusive
park, Founders Park, and an outdoor mall
named the Shops at Waterways. Although not
inside the city limits, some of south Florida's
finest beaches are just a few minutes away
