Hialeah, Florida: The City of Progress
Hialeah is a city in Dade County, Florida, situated on a prairie between the Everglades and Biscayne Bay. The name "Hialeah" comes from the Native American words for "pretty prairie" or "upland prairie." Hialeah is located less than 11 miles from Miami, making it a part of the larger Miami-Dade metropolitan area. Taken separately from the rest of the metro area, Hialeah is the sixth largest city in the state of Florida with a population of 212,000, more than 90% of whom are Hispanic.
The city was established in 1921 by aviation pioneer Glen Curtiss and cattleman James Bright. Hialeah, FL has gained many distinctions over its short history. It was the site of the Miami Movie Studios, which turned out such famous silent films as The White Rose before it was destroyed by a hurricane in 1926. Hialeah was also where Amelia Earhart said her final goodbyes in 1937 before vanishing during her attempt to fly around the world.
Hialeah, FL's nickname, "city of progress" comes from the fact that it is one of the few industrial cities in the United States that has continued to grow through the 1990s. As the destination for many workers fleeing Cuba at various times since the 1959 revolution, Hialeah has become the most economically successful immigrant enclave in the United States. Other, non-industrial economic ventures in Hialeah include the very successful television station Telemundo, which is currently the second largest Spanish language network in the world.
