Doral: a great place to live, work and play. Well, so the Doral government says in their advertisement for the city that can be found on their website. The ad portrays the town as a quaint community that is “becoming the premier place to live, work, learn and play in Miami-Dade County.” The ad leans towards the corny side, showing the sun rising over a golf course, children happily and readily learning and policeman diligently patrolling the town.
It highlights Doral’s government as providing excellent cost-effective services, achieving a balanced budget and fostering a sense of hometown pride. Furthermore, it hails the small town of 35,000 residents as the perfect place not only to work but to kick back and relax as well.
They even boast that Doral provides some of the best public schools in Miami-Dade. The Department of Education scored all Doral schools recently with an “A”.
The ad signs off with the sugary catchphrase “we call the city of Doral our hometown...for all the right reasons.”
Have you been to Doral? Do you work, live or even play there? Does it live up to this picture of the quintessential planned Floridian community? Do you think the local government lives up to the ideals portrayed in the ad?
