1298 units permitted in February is low for Miami's MSA. But looking closer at the data it seems like a bulk of the units are multifamily, in fact of the 1298 only 396 units were single family or consisted of lower than 5 units while 860 units were multifamily (5 or more units).

That's a large amount of multifamily units, especially per capita.

The only way to build single family housing is southern miami-dade, and there's still urban development boundaries that restrict building near farm land.

Miami-Dade and Broward need a zoning refresh to allow higher density or middle-housing options. Currently a large swath of land is still dedicated to single-family homes with unrealistic zoning requirements.
