Miami-Dade's population fell for the first time in years as domestic out-migration hit a new high and international arrivals stopped covering the gap.
The Miami-Dade Exodus
Miami-Dade lost a record 72,254 residents to domestic out-migration while developers kept building. Both things are true, and this page tracks the collision.
Census data showed Miami-Dade losing residents to other parts of the country at a record pace. At the same time the county has tens of thousands of units under construction. Those two facts point in opposite directions, and which one wins decides absorption, rents and the next two years of pipeline.
This page holds the data as it is released, the pipeline against it, and what each new print means for demand.
Every figure is sourced to the release it came from.

Frequently asked
- Is Miami-Dade shrinking?
- Domestic out-migration hit a record, but international arrivals and births offset part of it. This page separates the components rather than reporting a single net number.
- What does this mean for developers?
- It bears on absorption and pricing power on delivery. We publish the pipeline against the demand data so the comparison is visible rather than asserted.
