Alhambra Heights offers vintage homes and lush tropical lawns
Colorful, vintage houses set on little lush lots, alive with palmettos, fruit trees and tropical gardens, line the streets of Alhambra Heights. It’s primarily residential, home to a mix of longtime homeowners, first-time buyers and renters, giving the area a homey, lived-in feel. Alhambra Heights is on the edge of North Miami, a city with one of the country’s largest Haitian-American populations, so good Caribbean eats and rich island culture are never far away. The neighborhood also sits right next to Interstate 95, convenient for commuters. Schools, parks and beaches are nearby.
Many single-family homes in Alhambra Heights are accented with palm trees.
Longtime homeowner have filled their houses with character, even down to the driveways.

Midcentury houses with Spanish Revival touches at lower prices
Longtime local Ober Delgado, Realtor with United Realty Group, recently helped his friend find a home in Alhambra Heights. “He likes that he can walk his dog around, it’s pet-friendly, and he likes that it’s quiet,” Delgado says. “I think it’s a pretty established area… It’s diverse and very green, with lots of trees and fruit trees. My friend actually has a beautiful avocado tree in the backyard.” Most houses here are modest midcentury cottages, bungalows and ranch-style homes, many with Spanish Revival elements like stucco siding and terracotta barrel roof tiles. Prices are down about 17% from last year, with most recent sales ranging from the low $300,000s to the low $700,000s.
Fenced-in yards are typical.
If the greenery wasn't enough, the houses here bring pops of color to each block.

Flood zones and hurricane risks that shape local insurance needs
FEMA has mapped special flood zones along the nearby Miami Canal, and they do extend to the northeast corner of Alhambra Heights. Houses that way will likely require flood insurance for federally backed mortgages. “We’re a coastal city,” Delgado says. “Personally, I think every home here has some flood risk, but for homeowners, knowing their flood zone helps them understand the true likelihood of flooding and the financial impact it could have.” Another environmental – and financial – consideration is hurricane season, from June to November, making windstorm or hurricane a condition for most loans in South Florida.

Public transit choices and simple I‑95 access for drivers
Residents mainly rely on cars to get around, but those who need public transportation can rely on:
The NoMi Express Bus Service, a free community bus for the city of North Miami, with two routes looping through southern Alhambra Heights.

Meanwhile, drivers can easily hop on Interstate 95 via access ramps on the edge of the neighborhood, off Northwest 125th Street and Northwest 135th Street.

Each trip takes roughly 15 minutes when traffic is light, but rush hour can significantly slow travel, Delgato says. “During rush hour, [I-95] gets really, really busy. If you’re coming from downtown or Brickell up to this area, it could take you 30 to 45 minutes.”
There are many forms of public transportation near Alhambra Heights.
Alhambra Heights is bordered on the west by the I-95 Expressway.
