Miami Lakes Bicycle Accident

Miami Lakes, located in Florida's Miami-Dade County, is a carefully developed community known for its beauty and low crime rates. The key behind the community is the Graham Companies, which was first established in the 1930s by Ernest "Cap" Graham. Graham had 7000 acres to create a dairy business which he called Graham Dairy. Eventually, the company branched into other opportunities, and in the 1960s began developing a town which would eventually become Miami Lakes. Miami Lakes was envisioned as a 3000 acre planned community, designed with walkable streets, lakes, and plenty of green spaces. Development in Miami Lakes continues today and the town has become a success story of the Graham companies.
