Medley's business access and residential streets shape its character

A medley is defined as a varied mixture of people or things, and that is the perfect description for the town of Medley, Florida. Situated on the banks of a tributary of the Miami River, Medley is a combination of industrial and residential. National corporations like Sysco and Pepsico have locations here, so it’s easy enough to write Medley off as just a business center. But that would also ignore the variety of people who call the town home, a mixture of residents from all ages and walks of life who come together to live and play in Medley. “The town has a vibrant atmosphere because of the blend of business and residential,” says Realtor Melkys Martinez. “It’s a very friendly, welcoming community.” The residential area of the town is centered on the southeastern corner of Medley, and neighbors live close to one another, something that helps to build the community spirit of the area. Combine that with the fact that Medley offers easy access to major thoroughfares and nearby amenities, and it’s clear to see that Medley is a great combination for many buyers.

Manufactured and traditional homes are both available in Medley

With a median real estate price of $390,000, homes in Medley are much more affordable than those in nearby Hialeah. Potential buyers can choose between single-family traditional and manufactured homes, with the average price-per-square-foot for real estate hovering around $300. A typical two-bedroom/two-bathroom manufactured home can start at around $220,000. In the more traditional single-family home sector, a three-bedroom/two-bathroom ranch-style home can list for about $240,000, while a spacious two-story three-bedroom/two-bathroom midcentury modern can go for up to $500,000. “The lower price points are great for first-time homebuyers, and some of the bigger homes are good for more established buyers,” says Martinez.

Basketball, swimming and open green space define outdoor recreation

For outdoor recreation, head over to Danny Meehan Recreational Field. The nearby mural highlights the diversity of Medley, both in terms of its residential/industrial mixture and its population. Take a walk around the paved path or play a game of pick-up basketball on one of the courts. Kids can play on the playground or the family can get together for a picnic under one of the many covered shelters. Or you can choose to play an epic game of capture-the-flag on the huge open field, swim laps in the pool or a host of other activities.

Cuban cuisine is readily available in Medley

Several grocery stores in the area – including Benjamin and Mas Barata Supermarket – make grocery shopping a breeze for neighborhood residents. And the nearby Target makes it convenient to pick up any household necessities or other items you might need. When cooking at home just isn’t on the menu, check out the menu at Dame Mas, where they’ll do just that by giving you more. With Latin-themed croquetas taking center stage, you can sample a wide variety of these deep-fried Cuban delicacies, ranging from the traditional to the innovative to the seasonal. Or get your fill of authentic Cuban cuisine at La Mia, where maduros and empanadas are on the menu, not to mention exceptional Cuban coffee.

There are a lot of words that mean mixture: mélange, combination, potpourri and mixture are a few that come to mind. In this part of Florida, they call it Medley, and the ingredients that go into this South Florida town are a recipe for a great little area. If you’ve been looking around and struggling to find a home that fits your budget, give Medley a look. You just might find that it’s the perfect mixture of price and convenience for you.
