MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — Moving to Florida isn't all it used to be cracked up to be.
A new report lists two South Florida cities as among the nation's worst for first-time homebuyers.
The report from the financial Web site, WalletHub, ranks Miami Beach as the fourth-worst small-city market and Miami as the fifth-worst large-city market for first-time home-purchasers.
Among the criteria used was affordability, rent-to-price ratio, recreation, friendliness and property crimes.
