Glenvar Heights the Best of Miami 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) Glenvar Heights is the perfect suburb of Miami but my opinion is bias. The best thing about Glenvar Heights is that it is close to everything. It is the perfect place for single people and families as it provides a safe/ low crime area and the education system is very good.

We ...Read More have a lot of activities including malls, nearby beaches, botanical gardens, parks and more. Living in Glenvar Heights provides the convenience of the big city, but the luxury of the quiet small town. Although I work in Miami, I love coming home to a quiet neighborhood.

A few of my favorite places include Haulover Beach Park as there are many dog-friendly activities. It's also nice for the family too. The best mall is Dadeland Mall as it has a perfect Miami feel with plenty of parking, upscale and traditional stores. The food court is okay as it has typical food but the mall is surrounded by different unique restaurants. Read Less
