Thanksgiving is almost here, and Miami just made the list of the best cities to celebrate!
The study looked at everything from Thanksgiving dinner prices and holiday traditions to weather, travel delays, and volunteer opportunities.
Here’s where Miami landed:
- Celebrations & Traditions: No. 6
- Affordability: No. 67
- Safety & Accessibility: No. 73
- Giving Thanks: No. 46
- Weather Forecast: No. 33
So we’re pretty good at celebrating, but affordability? Yeah, we definitely have some work to do. LOL!
Miami also tied for the most pumpkin patches per capita, which doesn’t surprise me one bit. I mean, have we not been to The Berry Farms?!
On the flip side, Miami and Hialeah ranked near the bottom when it came to volunteer hours. Okay, so maybe we need to spend a little less time taking pictures at pumpkin patches and a little more time giving back to our community. LOL!
Dallas took the No. 1 spot overall, followed by Atlanta and San Antonio.
And here’s something to keep in mind: Americans are expected to spend nearly $338 between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday. Between the food, shopping, and everything else, it adds up quickly!
At least we can enjoy Thanksgiving in Miami without having to shovel snow!
