Bal Harbour Village is a village in Miami-Dade County, Florida, with a population of just over 3,000. Small but mighty, this high-end village in Miami is known as a getaway for the rich and famous. The “dream village” that founder Robert C. Graham envisioned so many years ago continues to prosper and thrive today. From the beginning, the village was envisioned as a modern community that would maintain exceptionally high standards, provide superior services, and foster civic pride.
Celebrating its seventieth anniversary in 2016, Bal Harbour remains a pristine community, a carefully designed haven for the very best in residential living and upscale tourism. With elegant homes and condominiums, elite shops, and exquisitely manicured roadways, the village is widely recognized as the jewel in the crown of South Florida’s communities—a model for the good life. Bal Harbour remains a natural paradise for both residents and visitors alike, with pristine, white sand beaches and a serene spirit.
Bal Harbour’s collective vision as a village, or the “Bal Harbour experience,” represents the distinctive feeling that one experiences when living in or visiting this unique, exclusive, curated, and refined community. One fundamental element of this vision is to implement smart policies and strategic solutions to address the challenges of today and ensure that the village remains a resilient and sustainable community, able to protect its future.
In addition to benefiting from Miami-Dade County’s participation in Southeast Florida Regional Climate Change Compact, which aims to address climate change and sea level rise through a multi-faceted approach of mitigation and adaptation, Bal Harbour has joined the American Flood Coalition to further its resiliency and adaptation efforts.
