DORAL, Fla. - Hundreds of Venezuelans packed into a Miami-area restaurant on Tuesday, their eyes fixed on television images of violence in their home country, yet hopeful that the unrest spelled the beginning of the end of President Nicolas Maduro’s rule.
“Nobody here is working. Everybody is glued to the television waiting for more information about when Venezuela will be free,” said the 40-year-old Uber driver, who fled Caracas for Miami last year. According to a 2018 study by the University of Miami, more than 200,000 Venezuelans now live in Florida in communities such as Doral, a fast-growing suburb near Miami, and Weston, which lies about 20 miles west of Fort Lauderdale.
At the same time, it has also put pressure on this bedroom community, clogging the streets with nearly impassable traffic during rush hour and pushing rents up to levels only seen in downtown Miami or on Miami Beach.
