Oh yeah, Cubans are eating up all the beach front property in S. Florida. What Cuban beach front communities are you talking about? Big difference between beach front and 1,000-10,000' inland in Fl and yes I have spent a good part of my life down there.
You said coast not beach! Besides the Cubans own more hotels on the beach than yanks. You also won't see many yanks working or earning a living. Sorry but the retired people in their trailers and small houses don't exactly count. The Cubans are the ones making the most economic impact, and they are moving north. I lived in the Miami area for several years. The Cubans and their decendants are a hard working bunch.
