Doral
Doral has grown rapidly from an industrial area into one of Miami-Dade's most sought-after residential communities, with many newer homes and a large inventory of gated developments. Its inland location provides some terrain shielding, but all Doral properties remain within the HVHZ and are subject to the same NOA requirements as coastal areas.
