Brazil made the largest month-over-month jump in the top-10, moving from No. 12 in November 2022 to No. 7 in December 2022.

"Global buyers purchase in South Florida not just because Miami is a gateway to the world and a secure investment, but because of our acceptance of all cultures," MIAMI Chairman of the Board Ines Hegedus-Garcia said. "Nowhere else in the world is more welcoming than Miami. This month, World Population Review ranked Miami as the 'Most Diverse City in the World.'"
