The area’s largest employers include Carnival Corporation, Univision, the Miami Herald, and the Doral Trump Golf Resort and Spa — and the area job growth is expected to keep growing steadily, with a 6.5% increase over the coming years.

As the rising city’s population has grown, so have its amenities, with two new urban centers — Downtown Doral and CityPlace — offering dining, shopping and entertainment options.

Doral also has seven public parks, with a community center, sports fields, and numerous trails. The largest is the 82-acre Doral Central Park, home to major local events such as EGGstravaganza and the Independence Day Celebration. — Sergei Klebnikov
