Little Gables is an unincorporated community in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The name "Little Gables" comes from the community being located between the cities of Coral Gables and Miami.

Geography

[edit]

Little Gables is bordered by Coral Gables on the east, west and south, and by the Miami neighborhood of Flagami on the north.

History

[edit]

There have been proposals for Coral Gables to annex Little Gables for several decades prior to 2018. An attempt at annexation was made in 2018-19 which ultimately failed due to the lack of alternative affordable housing for residents of a trailer park in the community which Coral Gables wished to redevelop.[1][2]

Demographics

[edit]

As of 2018, Little Gables, High Pines and Ponce-Davis (all unincorporated areas which Coral Gables was attempting to annex) had a combined population of about 5,490.[3]
