Hialeah vs Greensboro: which should you move to?
Hialeah or Greensboro? Housing, rent, crime, climate, income, taxes and transit, side by side, from each city's own published figures. Written for someone deciding where to live, not for a ranking.
Both cities price in US dollars, so the figures net directly, and they are close on more than their size suggests: city populations of 230,968 and 308,667 that grew 3.5% and 3.2% from 2020 to 2025, and median household incomes of $57,151 in Hialeah and $63,516 in Greensboro, $6,365 apart. That makes the house and the insurance the difference. Mortgage, property tax and insurance come to about $3,425 a month on Hialeah's typical home at August's 6.67% and about $2,231 on Greensboro's single-family median at October's 7.28%, roughly 72% of local median income against 42%, and the $1,194 gap would be about $1,339 with Hialeah's payment at the same rate. On the same Zillow index Hialeah's typical home was $445,331 and Zillow's index for the City of Greensboro stood at $263,264, about 41% lower, Greensboro insures for $179 a month against $505, and its rent index is $1,392 against $2,374. North Carolina takes $3,708 in income tax on $100,000 for 2025 and Florida none, but the property tax gap on these two houses is about $4,042 a year. Crime runs the other way, sharply, on the FBI's 2025 counts for both: about 178 violent offenses per 100,000 in Hialeah against 705 in Greensboro, and 3 homicides against 37. Choose Hialeah for a fraction of the violent crime, a 19.7 C January, a tight labor market, Metrorail into Miami and a city that lives in Spanish, if your income can carry a house at 7.8 times the local median and you will check the flood map first. Choose Greensboro for a house, a rent and an insurance bill local pay can carry, Medicaid expansion, two public universities and Amtrak, if you can take its crime, a 4.3 C January with ice and snow, and a tax bill that will be reset on new values for 2027.

What a home costs in each
The figures the two cities' rent-versus-buy and mortgage calculators run on, read from the same tables.
| Measure | Hialeah | Greensboro | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Benchmark home price MLS® HPI or equivalent benchmark. Lower is treated as the advantage, which is the buyer's view rather than the owner's. | $445,331 (June 2026) | $321,811 (August 2026) | Greensboro |
| Detached house benchmark Hialeah and Greensboro publish a single house index rather than a composite, so the two rows repeat. | $445,331 | $321,811 | Greensboro |

| Two-bedroom rent | $2,374/mo (median, June 2026) | $1,126/mo (median, September 2026) | Greensboro |
| One-bedroom rent | $2,042/mo | $1,010/mo | Greensboro |
| Two-bedroom rent against median income A year of two-bedroom rent as a share of the median household income below. A household paying the median rent out of the median income is a fiction, but it is the same fiction in both columns and it crosses currencies. | 49.8% of a year's income | 21.3% of a year's income | Greensboro |
| Mortgage payment on the benchmark, 20% down 30-year amortization on American monthly compounding, the convention in both. | $2,292/mo at 6.67% | $1,762/mo at 7.28% | Greensboro |
| Price to household income Benchmark price divided by the median household income below. A ratio is comparable across currencies; the dollars are not. | 7.8× | 5.1× | Greensboro |
| Property tax on the benchmark home The effective rate on market value, which is what the two rates have in common and what the Advantage column is decided on; the bills are in each city's own dollars. | $7,534/yr (1.692%, 2025) | $3,492/yr (1.085%, 2026) | Greensboro |
| Transfer tax on the benchmark home Compared as a share of the price. Where the seller pays it, it is a cost of leaving rather than arriving. | $2,672 (seller pays) | $644 (seller pays) | Greensboro |
| Rent control A cap protects a sitting tenant and does nothing for the next lease, so neither column is simply better. | Forbidden by state law | Forbidden by state law | Not directly comparable |
Hialeah: About 1.69% of what you pay for the house, which is lower than the 18.6468 mills charged here, and the difference is Florida's homestead exemption rather than any assessment lag. The state assesses at full market value and a purchase resets the assessment to the price. What there is instead is an exemption: $25,000 of taxable value comes off for every taxing authority and a second slice comes off for all of them except the school district, which levies 6.4990 of the 18.6468. That second slice was $25,000 through the 2024 tax roll and has been adjusted for inflation every 1 January since, under the 2024 amendment to Article VII section 6 of the state constitution, so it is now somewhat more than $25,000. The figures here use the base amount, because the Department of Revenue sends the adjusted figure to the county property appraisers rather than publishing it. The difference is worth a few dollars a year on a bill, and the county property appraiser can tell you the amount in force. A homesteaded buyer's first-year bill is therefore about $7,534 on the $445,331 typical home value here. Hialeah runs its own fire department, so it pays none of the county's 2.3965-mill Fire Rescue district levy. One of only five municipalities in Miami-Dade in that position, and worth more than most municipal rates on this table. The exemption is not automatic: you file for it with the Miami-Dade Property Appraiser by 1 March of the year after you buy. The seller's tax bill is not a guide to yours. Save Our Homes caps a homesteaded property's assessed value at 3% growth a year, and that cap resets to full market value the January after the sale, so a long-tenured owner can be taxed on a fraction of what you will be taxed on for the same house. Ask the property appraiser what the assessment would be at your purchase price, not what the current bill is. Greensboro: About 1.08% of market value. A house in the City of Greensboro pays two levies for fiscal 2027: Guilford County's 78.95 cents per $100 and the City's 79.85, 158.80 in all on the County's rate table, against 140.30 a year earlier. Both are charged on the values of the 1 January 2022 revaluation: the County reappraised for 2026, but Senate Bill 889, signed on 19 June 2026, put the new values off to the 2027 bills, and both governments raised their rates on the old base instead. North Carolina measures how far the old values lag: the Department of Revenue put Guilford's assessments at 68.31% of sale prices on 1 January 2025 and publishes an effective county rate of 0.4990% against the nominal 0.7305% on that arithmetic. The same ratio on the combined rate gives 1.085%, about $3,492 a year on the $321,811 single-family median, if the house is assessed like the average one. A buyer does not reset the assessment by buying, so the seller's bill is the guide to the 2026 one; the 2027 bill will be on the new value at rates not yet set. Inside the Dunleath Historic District the bill carries 5 cents more, in the College Hill Historic District 1 cent and in the Downtown Improvement District 9. Stormwater and solid waste are not on the tax bill: the City charges them on the water bill, about $8.74 a month for a typical house on figures this site could only read secondhand.

Down for violent crime, and down for property crime by less than the FBI's totals suggest. On the FBI CDE's counts violent offenses went from 474 in 2022 to 431 in 2023, 415 in 2024 and 412 in 2025, about 210, 187, 178 and 178 per 100,000 on each year's Vintage 2025 population, and January to July 2026 brought 192 against 246 in the same months of 2025, a fall of 22%, mostly in aggravated assaults (165 against 214). Robberies halved, from 66 in 2022 to 31 in 2025. The CDE's property totals fell from 4,329 in 2022 to 3,273 in 2025, but about 500 of that fall is motor vehicle thefts the FBI's series stopped carrying in October 2023; without them property offenses went from 3,801 in 2022 to 3,621 in 2023, 3,610 in 2024 and 3,266 in 2025, a fall of 14% over three years, with larceny down from 3,565 to 3,018. FDLE's file, which kept counting car thefts, has them falling too, from 541 in 2022 and 566 in 2023 to 488 in 2024 and 337 in 2025. January to July 2026 property offenses (1,969) were level with 2025 (1,962). The CDE counts were read on 2 October 2026 from a feed last refreshed on 15 September 2026, whose August 2026 property count (139, about half a normal month) and September figures (none) are incomplete and are not used.
What the rates cover: Computed: 412 violent offenses (murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault) in the FBI Crime Data Explorer's summarized data for the Hialeah Police Department (ORI FL0130400) in calendar 2025, divided by the 230,968 Vintage 2025 estimate for July 2025; on the CDE's own agency population of 238,769 the rate is 173. The department has reported to the FBI through the incident-based system since January 2021 and the CDE has every month from then to August 2026. 2025 is the year the Miami, Tampa, Jacksonville, Port St. Lucie and St. Petersburg profiles use. That is half Miami's 359, below Tampa's 376, St. Petersburg's 502 and Jacksonville's 514, and above Port St. Lucie's 130 and Cape Coral's 122 for 2023. Aggravated assault is 356 of the 412. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement's incident-based (FIBRS) file, which feeds the FBI and counts somewhat more broadly (its forcible sex offenses include fondling), has 432 violent offenses for the department in 2025, about 187 per 100,000.
Homicides: 3 murders and nonnegligent manslaughters in 2025 in the FBI CDE, about 1.3 per 100,000 on the city population; FDLE's file also has 3. The CDE series is 12 in 2021, 6 in 2022, 6 in 2023, 2 in 2024, 3 in 2025 and 2 in January to August 2026. Miami had 26 in 2025, Tampa 17, St. Petersburg 9 and Port St. Lucie 4.
Down sharply in 2025 after a 2024 peak. On the FBI CDE's figures violent offenses were 2,466 in 2019, 2,723 in 2020, 2,642 in 2021, 2,456 in 2022, 2,514 in 2023, 2,820 in 2024 and 2,177 in 2025, about 829, 920 and 705 per 100,000 in the last three years on each July's Vintage 2025 population, so 2025 was 23% below 2024, the drop the police department itself announced (WFDD). Property offenses peaked at 11,446 in 2023 and fell to 10,410 in 2024 and 9,248 in 2025, down 11%. The SBI's summaries show the same 2023 and 2024 figures within a few offenses (2,509 and 2,816 violent). The FBI series needs care in two places. The CDE lists the department as reporting incident-based (NIBRS) data from 1 January 2019, and its 2018 counts are lower (1,860 violent), so 2018 is not used. And its January 2026 row is plainly incomplete, 37 violent and 78 property offenses against 216 and 730 in January 2025, with February also low, so 2026 is compared from March: March to August brought 1,078 violent offenses against 1,154 in the same months of 2025, down 7%, and 4,546 property offenses against 4,819, down 6%. The September 2026 row is partial. The CDE counts were read on 4 October 2026 from a feed last refreshed on 15 September and can still be revised; the SBI's 2025 summary had not been published.
What the rates cover: Computed: 2,177 violent offenses (murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault) in the FBI Crime Data Explorer's summarized data for the Greensboro Police Department (ORI NC0410200) in calendar 2025, divided by the 308,667 Vintage 2025 city population; on the CDE's own agency population of 310,328 the rate is 702. The rate is high, for North Carolina and for the country: the CDE's 2025 rate for reporting North Carolina agencies is 331 per 100,000 and for the nation 329, so Greensboro's is a little more than twice either. It is the highest of the three North Carolina cities this site compares, above Charlotte's 607 (on CMPD's own count) and Raleigh's 396, and of the US cities here only Houston's 890 is higher in 2025 (Orlando's 835.8 is for 2022). Among the state's largest city police departments on the CDE's 2025 counts and populations it is second to Winston-Salem's 744, ahead of Fayetteville's 614, Charlotte-Mecklenburg's 559, High Point's 521, Durham's 507 and Raleigh's 395. The North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation's most recent annual summary, for 2024 (published October 2025), counts 2,816 violent offenses for the department that year, about 919 per 100,000, the highest rate of any city police department in its table of the state's largest agencies, ahead of Gastonia (826), Winston-Salem (806) and Asheville (801). The department's own year-end figures, 1,601 aggravated assaults and 426 robberies, are within 16 and 10 of the FBI's.
Homicides: 37 murders and nonnegligent manslaughters in 2025 in the FBI CDE, about 12.0 per 100,000 on the city population, against the CDE's 6.5 for North Carolina and 4.3 for the nation, and against Raleigh's 25 (4.9 per 100,000) and Charlotte's 96 (about 10). The CDE series is 44 in 2019, 60 in 2020, 51 in 2021, 41 in 2022, 74 in 2023, 43 in 2024 and 37 in 2025; the 2023 figure is the city's record, a spike for which the police department still has no single explanation (The Assembly). The department's own provisional year-end count for 2025 is 42 homicides, against 45 in 2024, and a quarter of them were tied directly to domestic violence (WFDD; The Assembly); nothing read explains the five-homicide gap between its count and the FBI's.

NOAA NCEI 1991-2020 normals for the Hialeah cooperative station (USC00083909), about 3.8 miles south-southeast of the city's center and about half a mile outside its southern limit. It is used rather than Miami International Airport (USW00012839), 5.5 miles south, because it is closer and has a complete set of 1991-2020 monthly and annual normals for temperature, precipitation and snowfall. Its temperature normals rest on 27 to 29 years of the 30 and meet NCEI's standard completeness in every month; five months of its precipitation normals (April and July to October) are flagged representative, from 21 to 23 years, while the airport's precipitation rests on all 30. The nearer Opa-locka airport (USW00012882, 2.9 miles) has no snowfall normal and only 18 to 23 years in any element. January mean 67.4F, July mean 83.3F, annual mean 76.6F, 72.93 in of precipitation and 0.0 in of snow. August is the warmest month at 83.5F, with a mean high of 90.1F; January's mean low is 59.1F. September (11.53 in) and June (11.45 in) are the wettest months, June through September bring 40.88 in, 56% of the year, and May through October 76%; January (2.03 in) is the driest. The normals count 91.0 days a year at 90F or above, 0.2 at 100F and none at or below freezing. Converted here to 19.7 C, 28.5 C, 1,852 mm and 0 cm. Miami International, whose normals the Miami profile stores, is a little warmer and drier: 68.6F in January, 84.1F in July and 67.41 in a year, with 91.4 days at 90F. Hialeah's January is the second warmest of the Florida cities this site compares after Miami's, and its rain is the most of any of them. Sunshine is Miami's: the normals carry none, and the 3,154 hours stored here, 70% of possible with 74 clear days, are Current Results' figure for Miami from NCDC's 1961-1990 Comparative Climatic Data, the source of the other US profiles' sunshine hours; Current Results lists no Hialeah station.
Hazards: Hurricanes, rain flooding and heat. The last hurricane to bring hurricane-force gusts was Irma, which came ashore at Cudjoe Key and then Marco Island on 10 September 2017, well to the southwest: nearly every inland station in the Miami-Dade and Broward metro area reported sustained winds just below hurricane force, Opa-locka Airport, 2.9 miles north of the city's center, recorded 56 kt (64 mph) sustained with a gust of 74 kt (85 mph), Miami International a gust of 63 kt (72 mph), and about 1,000 homes in Miami-Dade had major damage (National Hurricane Center). That 72 mph gust is the airport's strongest since 2010, and it had 5.18 in of rain that day. Rain is the more frequent problem in a flat, low city: the airport's wettest day since 2010 was 9.70 in on 22 May 2012, and it had 7.53 in on 15 November 2023 and 6.25 in on 12 June 2024. FEMA's flood map puts City Hall in zone AH, a special flood hazard area for shallow ponding, with a base flood elevation of 8 ft (panel 12086C0284L, effective 11 September 2009), so flood insurance can be a lender's requirement well inland from the coast. Heat: 91.0 days a year at 90F or above on the Hialeah normals; the airport recorded 139 such days in 2023, the most since 2010, and 115 in 2026 through 29 September, and reached 100F (37.8 C) on 18 August 2026, its only reading that high since 2010. Cold is brief: the airport's lowest reading since 2010 is 35F, on 10 January 2010 and again on 1 February 2026, and the normals count no nights at or below freezing.
NOAA NCEI 1991-2020 normals for Piedmont Triad International Airport (station USW00013723), the Weather Service station for Greensboro, about 7 miles west of the city's center point: January mean 39.7F, July mean 78.9F, annual mean 59.6F, 43.95 in of precipitation, 7.1 in of snow. July is the warmest month, ahead of August's 77.3F, with a mean high of 88.5F; January's mean low is 30.1F. Rain is spread through the year: September (4.59 in), August (4.36 in) and July (4.18 in) are the wettest months and February (2.81 in) the driest. Most of the snow falls in January (2.9 in) and February (2.0 in), with 1.2 in in December and 0.9 in in March. The normals count 33.3 days a year at 90F or above, 0.2 at 100F or above, 68.4 nights at or below freezing, 10.2 at or below 20F and 3.6 days that stay below freezing. Converted here to 4.3 C, 26.1 C, 1,116 mm and 18.0 cm. The cooperative station at the City's water treatment plant (USC00313625), inside the city, runs a little warmer in summer, 39.9F in January and 79.5F in July with 45.89 in a year. Greensboro has the coldest winter and the most snow of the three North Carolina cities this site compares, against Raleigh's 5.5 C and 13.2 cm and Charlotte's 5.6 C and 8.9 cm, and of the US cities here only Boston is colder or snowier; its rain is between Charlotte's 1,107 mm and Raleigh's 1,170 mm. Sunshine is not stored: Current Results' US city table, the source and 1961-1990 basis of the other US profiles' sunshine hours, lists Charlotte and Raleigh but no Greensboro station, and the 1991-2020 normals do not include sunshine.
Hazards: Ice, snow and severe thunderstorms more than hurricanes. Greensboro is in the Piedmont, far from the coast, so storm surge is not its hazard, but cold air banked against the mountains to the west often turns winter storms to freezing rain, which Wikipedia calls a more pressing concern than snow. Snow comes most winters and varies widely: the airport measured 12.0 inches on 9 December 2018, its largest one-day fall since 2010, and 10.3 inches on 31 January 2026, two days before its lowest reading since 2010, 3F on 2 February 2026. Tornadoes are the deadliest record: an F4 on 2 April 1936 cut a seven-mile path through southern Greensboro and part of downtown, killing 14, and tornadoes struck the Greensboro area again on 7 May 2008 and the city on 15 April 2018 (Wikipedia). Thunderstorm winds are the routine risk; the airport's highest gust since 2010 is 74.0 mph on 13 July 2015, and it recorded 68.9 mph on 18 September 2026. Its two wettest days since 2010 both came in the autumn of 2018, 4.60 inches on 16 September and 4.13 inches on 11 October. Summer heat is real but rarely extreme: the normals count 33 days a year at 90F and almost none at 100F, and the airport's highest reading since 2010 is 102F on 29 June 2012. 2026 has been unusually hot, with 61 days at 90F or above through 29 September, nearly twice the normal, and 100F on 2 July, the first 100F day there since 2012. The city's records are 104F, set in 1911 and 1914, and -8F on 21 January 1985 (Wikipedia).

BLS counted 1,349,400 nonfarm jobs in the Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall metropolitan division, which is Miami-Dade County, in August 2026 (not seasonally adjusted, preliminary), up 6,200 or 0.5% on the year. Professional and business services (+5,300, or 2.5%, to 221,300), private education and health services (+4,600, or 2.0%, to 229,600), leisure and hospitality (+2,900, or 1.9%, to 153,400) and wholesale trade (+1,500, or 1.8%, to 82,800) added the most, while financial activities lost 5,100 (-5.0%, to 96,700), government 1,100 and transportation, warehousing and utilities 1,000. Trade, transportation and utilities is the largest supersector at 324,900, 24% of the county's jobs. The City's 2025 financial report lists its ten principal employers, led by Palmetto General Hospital (1,635), the City (1,492), UPS (1,119) and Hialeah Hospital (1,032), at 8,995 jobs, 7.8% of employment in the city on the City's count; six of the ten carry exactly the headcount they had in 2016, so the list has not been recounted for most of them. Most residents work elsewhere in the county: 61.8% of the city's workers (74,100 of 119,984) worked outside Hialeah in 2024, but only 9.8% (11,754) outside Miami-Dade. 13.2% worked from home, and the mean commute for the rest was 30 minutes, with 11.4% spending an hour or more (ACS 2024 1-year, B08007, B08008, B08013, B08101 and B08303).
Main sectors: Health care: Palmetto General Hospital (1,635 staff) is the city's largest employer, and Hialeah Hospital (1,032), Larkin Community Hospital's Palm Springs campus (683) and La Colonia Medical Centers (527) are also among its ten largest, in a county sector (private education and health services, 229,600 jobs) that added 4,600 jobs over the year, Shipping, wholesale and warehousing: United Parcel Service (1,119) is the third-largest employer, in a city beside Miami International Airport; Miami-Dade's wholesale trade employs 82,800 and its transportation, warehousing and utilities 98,400, Groceries and retail: Publix (771), Fresco y Más (741) and Sedano's (545) among the ten largest employers, the many independent shops and supermarkets on the main streets that Wikipedia describes, and Westland Mall, in a county with 143,700 retail jobs, City government: the City of Hialeah (1,492, down from 1,755 in 2016), which runs its own police, fire department, library and free bus service, Light industry: the garment and manufacturing plants that made Hialeah an industrial city in the 1970s and 1980s have mostly gone, replaced in part by electronics and technology businesses (Wikipedia); Miami-Dade's manufacturing employs 46,800, 3.5% of its jobs.
Property tax is the local levy that matters. Tax Foundation puts Florida's effective property tax rate on owner-occupied homes at 0.78%, and a homestead exemption takes as much as $50,000 off a permanent residence's taxable value and brings the Save Our Homes limit on how fast its assessment can rise (Florida Department of Revenue). A property in the City of Hialeah (Miami-Dade millage code 0400) paid 18.6468 mills for 2025 on the Miami-Dade Property Appraiser's adopted chart, down from 18.6638 in 2024: the City's own 6.3018 plus the 12.3450 of school, county and regional levies every municipality in the county pays. Hialeah runs its own fire department and its own library, so it pays neither the county Fire Rescue district's 2.3965 mills nor the library district's 0.2812. The City has held its rate at 6.3018 for at least ten years while taxable value rose 11.0% in fiscal 2025 to $22.2 billion (City of Hialeah financial report), and the appraiser's proposed 2026 table keeps it there, for a total of 18.6134. Miami-Dade is also the one Florida county with its own deed tax: 60 cents per $100 rather than the statewide 70, plus a 45-cent surtax that is not due on a transfer of a single-family dwelling only (Florida Department of Revenue), so a house at Hialeah's typical value of $445,331 carries about $2,672 and a condominium or duplex at the same price about $4,676, the seller's by convention. Zillow's typical home value for the city was $445,331 in June 2026, down 1.5% on the year, and its observed rent $2,374; the bills, insurance and flood exposure that follow belong to the housing layer.
BLS counted 374,600 nonfarm jobs in the Greensboro-High Point MSA in August 2026 (not seasonally adjusted, preliminary), up 3,500 or 0.9% on the year. Health care and social assistance (+1,800, or 3.7%, to 50,700), professional and business services (+1,500, or 3.1%, to 49,500) and construction (mining, logging and construction +1,400, or 7.4%, to 20,400) added the most, while manufacturing lost 1,500 (-3.1%, to 47,300), information 400 (to 3,200) and trade, transportation and utilities 400 (to 83,600). Manufacturing is 12.6% of the metro's jobs, and three of the ten largest employers on Guilford County's 2025 list are truck, bus and apparel companies. That list is the county's, from its 2025 financial report; the City of Greensboro's own report was not reachable from this environment, so no city list is given. It is led by Cone Health (13,000), Guilford County Schools (10,667), the City (3,753), the Postal Service (3,683) and the Volvo Group (3,037), with High Point University (2,723), Ralph Lauren (2,671), N.C. A&T (2,307) and Thomas Built Buses (2,000); in 2016 the list included UNCG, Bank of America and High Point Regional, and Guilford County Schools was first. Most residents work in the city: 71.8% of the city's 153,212 workers worked inside it in 2024 and 13.4% outside Guilford County, many of them in the Triad's other cities. 16.7% worked from home, and the mean commute for the rest was 22 minutes, with 5.3% spending an hour or more (ACS 2024 1-year, B08007, B08008, B08013, B08301 and B08303).
Main sectors: Manufacturing, about one job in eight: 47,300 of the metro's 374,600 nonfarm jobs in August 2026, down 1,500 on the year, with the Volvo Group (3,037 in Guilford County) and Thomas Built Buses (2,000) among the county's ten largest employers, Mack Trucks and Volvo Trucks of North America headquartered in the city, and Toyota's battery plant near Greensboro, which began shipping batteries in mid-2025, Health care: Cone Health, the Greensboro-based nonprofit hospital system, is Guilford County's largest employer (13,000), and health care and social assistance added 1,800 metro jobs in a year, to 50,700, the most of any sector, Trade, transportation and logistics, the metro's largest supersector at 83,600 jobs, where Interstates 40, 73 and 85 meet: FedEx's mid-Atlantic hub at the airport and a regional freight rail hub (Wikipedia), Aviation and aerospace at Piedmont Triad International Airport: Honda Aircraft's headquarters, aircraft maintenance (HAECO Americas, now part of AAR, and Marshall), and Boom Supersonic's Overture Superfactory, finished in June 2024 for an airliner that is not yet flying (Wikipedia), Education and government: Guilford County Schools (10,667 employees), the City of Greensboro (3,753), the Postal Service (3,683), Guilford County (2,975) and N.C. A&T (2,307), with UNCG and five other colleges in the city, in a government sector of 43,400 metro jobs.
North Carolina's flat income tax rate has come down every year since 2022, to 4.25% for 2025 and 3.99% for 2026. Property tax is levied by Guilford County and the City on assessed value. For 2025-26 a house in the City paid 140.30 cents per $100 of assessed value, the County's 73.05 cents plus the City's 67.25, on the North Carolina Department of Revenue's table of county and municipal rates; the County had held 73.05 cents for five years. Those values date from the County's 1 January 2022 reappraisal, and the Department measures how far they had fallen behind: assessments averaged 68.31% of sale prices, which makes the effective combined rate 0.9583% of market value. On the same table Raleigh's combined rate was 87.21 cents (0.8319% effective) and Charlotte's 76.68 cents (0.6808%), so Greensboro's was the highest of the three North Carolina cities this site compares on either measure. Downtown Improvement District parcels pay 9 cents more, and the College Hill and Dunleath historic districts 1 and 5 cents. For 2026-27 both rates rose sharply: the City adopted 79.85 cents on 16 June 2026, up 12.6 cents, and the County 78.95 cents on 25 June, up 5.9, a combined 158.80 cents. They rose because Senate Bill 889, signed on 19 June 2026, put off the County's 2026 reappraisal, so the 2026 bills are on the old 2022 values and the new values apply to the 2027 bills; the City's taxable base for the year is about $40.1 billion instead of the $56.1 billion the new values would have given (Guilford County; Rhino Times). The County estimates a revenue-neutral rate of 58.54 cents once the new values apply. Zillow's typical home value for the City was $263,264 in August 2026, flat on the year (up 0.04%) and the lowest of the three North Carolina cities here, against Raleigh's $428,671 and Charlotte's $392,573; of the US cities here only El Paso's, San Antonio's and Houston's are lower. Its observed rent index was $1,392 a month, up 2.1%, below every other US city here except San Antonio. The bills, insurance and fees that follow from these figures belong to the housing layer.

| System | Miami-Dade County's Department of Transportation and Public Works runs Metrobus across the city and Metrorail's Green Line, which stops at Okeechobee and Hialeah stations inside the city and at the Tri-Rail and Metrorail Transfer Station on its southern edge; Tri-Rail, the commuter railroad to Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach, stops at the transfer station and at Hialeah Market (Wikipedia). The City runs its own free bus service, Hialeah Transit, which in 2023 ran two routes, Flamingo and Marlin, with a free on-demand service through the Freebee app from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays and 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. on weekends, most of its cost covered by a county half-penny tax (NBC 6 South Florida). By road the city is bounded or crossed by Interstate 75, the Palmetto Expressway (State Road 826), the Homestead Extension of Florida's Turnpike, Okeechobee Road (US 27) and the Gratigny Parkway (Wikipedia). | The Greensboro Transit Agency (GTA), the City's bus system, which took over the private Duke Power buses in 1990-91 and runs about fifteen fixed routes almost entirely inside the city limits, most of them meeting downtown at the J. Douglas Galyon Depot, a separate Sunday network, the Higher Education Area Transit (HEAT) routes serving the city's colleges, and Access GSO paratransit; in 2018 it put the first battery-electric buses in municipal service in North Carolina into service (Wikipedia). The Piedmont Authority for Regional Transportation (PART) runs commuter buses between the Triad's cities and the airport. There is no rail transit. The Galyon Depot is also the intercity station: Amtrak's Piedmont (four round trips a day), Carolinian and Crescent stop there, six round trips in all, connecting Greensboro with Charlotte, Raleigh, Washington, New York, Atlanta and New Orleans, and Greyhound shares the building (Amtrak; Wikipedia). Interstates 40, 73 and 85 meet at the city, with an urban loop around it (Wikipedia). | Not directly comparable |

| Airport | Miami International Airport (MIA), about 5.4 miles south of the city's center, handled 55,314,661 passengers in 2025, 1.1% below 2024's record 55,926,566 (Wikipedia, from the airport's traffic reports). Tri-Rail, from the Tri-Rail and Metrorail Transfer Station on the city's southern edge, connects the city to it and north to West Palm Beach (Wikipedia). | Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO, known locally as PTI), in unincorporated Guilford County west of the city and run by the Piedmont Triad Airport Authority for Greensboro, High Point and Winston-Salem (Wikipedia). It handled 2,029,298 passengers in 2025, up 3.6% from 1,959,182 in 2024 but still below 2019's 2,145,929, with scheduled service to 14 US destinations on American, Delta, United, Allegiant and Breeze, and it is a FedEx Express hub (Wikipedia, from the airport's own statistics). The state's two larger airports serve Charlotte, about 90 miles southwest, and Raleigh, about 77 miles east (Wikipedia). | Not directly comparable |
Miami-Dade's transit system carried 81,459,917 unlinked trips in 2025 on the National Transit Database's monthly ridership file (Federal Transit Administration): 55.6 million on Metrobus, 15.0 million on Metrorail, 7.8 million on the Metromover downtown, 290,161 on its new bus rapid transit and the rest on demand-response, vanpool and commuter bus service. That is 20% below the 102.1 million of 2019 and 4.3% below 2024's 85.2 million, and January to August 2026 ran 1.3% below the same months of 2025. The Miami profile's 80.8 million is APTA's count for the same year. Tri-Rail carried 4,552,250 commuter rail trips in 2025, level with 2024 and above 2019's 4,495,039 (same file). The City's own buses do not report monthly to the NTD; in October 2023 its transit manager put them at almost 30,000 riders a month, 11,000 of them on the on-demand service (NBC 6 South Florida).
GTA carried 2,329,584 unlinked trips in 2025 on the National Transit Database's monthly ridership file (Federal Transit Administration), 2,152,587 of them on its buses and the rest on demand-response service. That is less than half its peak of 4,906,812 in 2012 and below the 3,413,068 of 2019; ridership fell to 1.95 million in 2021, recovered to 2.56 million in 2024, and fell 9.1% in 2025, and January to August 2026 ran 7.4% below the same months of 2025. Why it has fallen since 2024 was not found. PART carried 375,758 trips in 2025 on the same file. Amtrak counted 210,652 passengers boarding or leaving trains at Greensboro in fiscal 2025, the second-busiest station in North Carolina after Charlotte's 365,614 (Amtrak). For comparison, Raleigh's GoRaleigh carried about 8.0 million trips in 2025 and Charlotte's CATS about 15.7 million in 2024 (their profiles).
Health care, schools and what each city is like
Health care
Care is paid for through employer or marketplace insurance, Medicare and Medicaid, and Florida is one of the ten states that have not expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act (KFF). The City of Hialeah's uninsured rate was 15.1% in 2024 (35,490 of 234,398, ACS 2024 1-year), above Miami-Dade's 12.4%, Florida's 10.9% and the national 8.2%. The city has two acute care hospitals, Hialeah Hospital and Palmetto General Hospital, which Steward Health Care bought from Tenet in August 2021 and lost in its bankruptcy: a court approved their sale to Healthcare Systems of America on 25 October 2024, and Hialeah Hospital is now owned by Medical Properties Trust and operated by that company (Wikipedia). Palmetto General is the city's largest employer (1,635 staff) and Hialeah Hospital its fourth (1,032), with Larkin Community Hospital's Palm Springs campus (683) and La Colonia Medical Centers (527) also among the ten largest (City of Hialeah). Wikipedia gives Hialeah Hospital 378 beds from the hospital's own site of 2015; this file did not verify a current bed count for either hospital, or a wait time figure for primary or specialist care.
Education
Miami-Dade County Public Schools runs the city's public schools. The district counted 18,910 fewer students on the first days of 2026-27 than at the end of 2025-26, a first-day snapshot it says the October count will refine, with private school vouchers, the cost of living and immigration enforcement among the reasons given; it had already closed or consolidated nine schools, and the 27 more it has put under review or reassessment do not include any named in Hialeah (WLRN; CBS News Miami). Wikipedia's list of the schools serving the city includes Hialeah Senior High, Hialeah-Miami Lakes Senior High and Westland Hialeah Senior High, with the José Martí MAST 6-12 magnet academy and the City of Hialeah Educational Academy, a charter school (Wikipedia). Miami Dade College has had a Hialeah campus since 1980. The City runs its own public library system, founded in 1924, a year before the city was incorporated, and outside the county's library district, which is why the county library levy does not appear on Hialeah tax bills (Wikipedia; Miami-Dade Property Appraiser).
Living there
Hialeah is the most Cuban city in the United States. It was laid out in 1921 by the aviator Glenn Curtiss and the cattleman James Bright on a prairie between Biscayne Bay and the Everglades, incorporated in 1925, the year Hialeah Park's racetrack opened, and became a working-class city after 1959 as successive waves of Cuban exiles settled there (Wikipedia). On the ACS 2024 1-year estimates 95.3% of its people are Hispanic, 72.7% are of Cuban origin and 77.1% were born outside the United States, against 55.3% for Miami-Dade; 91.9% speak Spanish at home and 59.5% speak English less than very well (2020-2024 5-year). It is dense, about 10,700 people per square mile of land, and one of the few places in the county with a street grid numbered separately from Miami's. It has the second-lowest household income of the Florida cities this site compares ($57,151, above only Tallahassee's) and, after Miami and Orlando, the lowest share of owners (42.8%), but its unemployment is low (2.3% in July 2026) and most of its workers have jobs inside Miami-Dade. It is also older than its reputation, with a median age of 46.0. It barely grew from 2020 to 2025 (3.5%) and lost people in the last year, as Miami-Dade did. Violent crime in 2025 was 178 per 100,000, half Miami's, with three homicides. Its own government does more than most: it runs its fire department, its library and free buses, and its property tax rate has not moved from 6.3018 mills in a decade.
Health care
Care is paid for through employer or individual private insurance, Medicare and Medicaid, and North Carolina is one of the 41 states, counting the District of Columbia, that have adopted the Medicaid expansion (KFF); the expansion covers about 740,000 people statewide. Federal and state changes narrow it: from January 1, 2027 most expansion adults aged 19 to 64 must show 80 hours a month of work, school or volunteering, or $580 a month in earnings, and renew every six months, and rules for non-citizens tighten (NCDHHS). The City of Greensboro's uninsured rate was 7.5% in 2024 (22,905 of 305,237), against 8.6% for North Carolina and 8.2% nationally, slightly above Raleigh's 7.1% and well below Charlotte's 12.1% (ACS 2024 1-year, B27001). One system dominates. Cone Health, a nonprofit based in Greensboro and Guilford County's largest employer with 13,000 staff, runs Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital, a 517-bed tertiary hospital opened in 1953 that is the largest in its four-county region and a Level II trauma center, with Wesley Long Hospital and a behavioral health hospital in the city and hospitals in Burlington and Reidsville (Wikipedia; Guilford County). It was acquired in December 2024 by Risant Health, a nonprofit created by Kaiser Permanente. Moses Cone was a whites-only hospital until 1963, when a federal appeals court ruled in Simkins v. Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital that its federal funding barred segregation, a decision that shaped Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Wikipedia). This file did not verify wait times for primary or specialist care.
Education
Greensboro is a college city. On the ACS 2024 1-year estimates 40,213 of its 297,824 residents aged 3 and over were enrolled in college (35,401 undergraduates) or graduate school (4,812), 13.5%, against 6.6% nationally and 6.7% in North Carolina. North Carolina A&T State University, in East Greensboro, enrolled 15,275 students in fall 2025, up 6.7% on 14,311, with 2,018 graduate students, and is the largest historically Black university in the country (N.C. A&T); it reported an estimated 15,700 for fall 2026 with a record first-year class of 3,214 (HBCU Gameday). The University of North Carolina at Greensboro enrolled 18,682 in fall 2025, up 3.7%, and more than 19,000 in fall 2026, its most since 2020 (UNCG). Guilford College, founded by Quakers in 1837, Greensboro College and Bennett College, a historically Black college for women whose students took part in the 1960 sit-ins, are private; Elon University's law school is downtown, and Guilford Technical Community College has campuses in the city and its main campus in Jamestown (Wikipedia). Public schools are run by Guilford County Schools, the countywide district and the third-largest in the state, with 67,620 students in 2024-25 and 121 schools in 2025-26 (NCES). Enrollment has fallen since 2018-19, and in 2025 the district proposed closing four small elementary schools, citing an older population moving in and more students in charter schools (WFDD).
Living there
Greensboro is the Gate City, a railroad town that grew on textiles: the Cone brothers' denim and flannel mills turned it from a village into a city around 1900, and textile, tobacco and apparel companies still have headquarters here (Wikipedia). It is also where the sit-in movement began: on 1 February 1960 four students from N.C. A&T sat down at the whites-only Woolworth's lunch counter on Elm Street, and the building is now the International Civil Rights Center and Museum, with the counter in place. Today it is North Carolina's third city, with 308,667 people, a manufacturing economy that is still about one job in eight in the metro, with trucks, buses and aircraft made in and around the city, and Cone Health as the largest employer, and two public universities, N.C. A&T, the country's largest historically Black university, and UNCG, with nearly 34,000 students between them in fall 2025. Next to Raleigh and Charlotte it is cheaper and slower: it grew 3.2% from 2020 to 2025 against their 8% and 10%, its typical home is $263,264 and its rent $1,392 on Zillow's indexes, the lowest of the three, and its household income ($63,516) is more than $21,000 below theirs. It also has the highest violent crime rate of the three, 705 per 100,000 on the FBI's 2025 counts, twice the state's, though that was 23% below 2024, and the coldest and snowiest winters, with 7.1 in of snow a year and ice storms. Its property tax rate rose by 18.5 cents per $100 for 2026-27 because the state put off the County's reappraisal, and the 2027 bills will be the first on the new values.
Where each city wins, and where it loses
Both cities price in US dollars, so the figures net directly, though the two headlines are different instruments, two months apart, priced at different rates. Hialeah's is Zillow's typical home value for the city across all homes, $445,331 in June 2026, 1.5% below a year earlier, the city's row in the Miami-Dade layer, financed at Freddie Mac's August rate of 6.67%. Greensboro's is Redfin's median sale price of single-family homes in the City of Greensboro, $321,811 in August on 660 sales, 2.9% below August 2025, computed from MLS and public records data, because no association or MLS median for 2026 could be read. On the same Zillow index, the like-for-like measure, Zillow's index for the City of Greensboro stood at $263,264 in August, flat on the year, so Hialeah's typical home is about 1.69 times it. Against local pay the headlines are 7.8 times Hialeah's 2024 median household income of $57,151 and 5.1 times Greensboro's $63,516. At 20% down, Hialeah's $356,265 loan at 6.67% costs $2,292 a month, and the $257,449 loan on the Greensboro median at 7.28%, the rate for 1 October, $1,761. A homesteaded buyer's first-year property tax is about $7,534 in Hialeah, 1.69% of the price on 18.6468 mills, against about $3,492 in Greensboro, 1.085% of market value on the fiscal 2027 rate, and insurance is budgeted at $505 and $179 a month, the Miami-Dade layer's mainland figure against NerdWallet's Greensboro average, neither including flood. The three lines come to about $3,425 and $2,231, roughly 72% and 42% of local median income. At 7.28% Hialeah's would be about $3,570, $1,339 more than Greensboro's, about half of it the mortgage and the rest the property tax and the insurance in nearly equal parts. Rent shows the same gap: Zillow's observed rent index was $2,374 in Hialeah in June 2026 and $1,392 in Greensboro in August, about 50% and 26% of median income, and Apartment List put Greensboro's two-bedroom median at $1,126 and its one-bedroom at $1,010 in September. Condominium fees are estimated at $850 a month against $250, neither of them a published average; Zillow's condominium index for the City of Greensboro was $166,658. Neither state allows a city to control rents.
This is one of the pairs where the definitions match, since both cities' figures are the FBI's Crime Data Explorer counts for 2025 divided by Census Vintage 2025 populations, and on them Hialeah is far the lower on every line. The Hialeah Police Department submitted 412 violent offenses, about 178 per 100,000 on 230,968 residents, and 3,273 property offenses, 1,417. The Greensboro Police Department submitted 2,177 violent offenses, 705 per 100,000 on 308,667, about four times Hialeah's rate and a little more than twice the CDE's 2025 rate for North Carolina's reporting agencies, 331, and 9,248 property offenses, 2,996. Hialeah's property figure is understated by car thefts missing from the FBI's copy, which carries 7 against 337 in the file of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, which feeds the FBI; with the state's count it would be about 1,560, still about half of Greensboro's, whose total includes 1,539 motor vehicle thefts. Homicide is the widest gap: 3 in Hialeah, about 1.3 per 100,000, against 37 in Greensboro, about 12.0, against North Carolina's 6.5. Both are falling. Hialeah's violent offenses have fallen every year since 2022, from 474 to 412, and January to July 2026 brought 192 against 246 in the same months of 2025. Greensboro's violent offenses fell 23% in 2025, from 2,820 in 2024, and its property offenses 11%, and March to August 2026 brought 1,078 violent offenses against 1,154 in the same months of 2025, down another 7%; the CDE's January 2026 row for the department is plainly incomplete, so the months before March are not compared. Greensboro's record year for homicide was 2023, with 74, a spike its police department still has no single explanation for. The counts were read on 2 and 4 October 2026 and can still be revised.
Hialeah has one of the warmest winters of the cities this site compares and Greensboro one of the coldest, and the two get their water differently. January averages 19.7 C at the Hialeah cooperative station, about half a mile outside the city's southern limit, and 4.3 C at Piedmont Triad International, about 7 miles west of Greensboro's center, 67.4F against 39.7F; July averages 28.5 C against 26.1 C, 83.3F against 78.9F. The normals count 91.0 days a year at or above 32.2 C (90F) in Hialeah and 33.3 in Greensboro, the same 0.2 days a year at 100F in both, and no freezing nights in Hialeah against 68.4. Hialeah gets 1,852 mm of rain a year, the most of any Florida city this site compares, and Greensboro 1,116 mm, spread through the year, and Greensboro's normals carry 18.0 cm of snow, 7.1 in, where Hialeah's carry none; Greensboro's airport measured 10.3 inches on 31 January 2026 and 3F two days later. Hialeah's sunshine figure, 3,154 hours, is Miami's on the older series, and no Greensboro station has one. Hialeah's water is rain on flat, low ground: FEMA's map puts its City Hall in zone AH, a special flood hazard area for shallow ponding with a base flood elevation of 8 ft, and on the City's own flood layer 90,311 of its 223,109 residents at the 2020 census, about two in five, lived in a mapped flood zone; Miami International, 5.4 miles south, had 9.70 in of rain on 22 May 2012, and Irma in 2017 brought a gust of 85 mph to Opa-locka Airport, 2.9 miles north of Hialeah's center. Greensboro is in the Piedmont, far from the coast, and its hazards are winter and wind. Its winter storms often turn to freezing rain as cold air banks against the mountains to the west, which Wikipedia calls a more pressing concern than snow, and tornadoes are its deadliest record: an F4 on 2 April 1936 cut through southern Greensboro and part of downtown, killing 14, and tornadoes struck the city again in 2008 and 2018. Thunderstorm wind is the routine risk, with a gust of 74.0 mph at the airport on 13 July 2015, and its two wettest days since 2010 both came in the autumn of 2018.
Hialeah's labor market is far tighter and larger, and Greensboro's households earn a little more. On the same unadjusted basis BLS put July 2026 unemployment at 3.7% for the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro and 4.1% for Greensboro-High Point, and the cities themselves at 2.3% and 4.4%; Greensboro's metro rate fell on the year partly because fewer people were counted in its labor force. Miami-Dade, the Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall division, had 1,349,400 nonfarm jobs in August, 6,200 or 0.5% more than a year earlier; the Greensboro metro had 374,600, 3,500 or 0.9% more, with health care adding 1,800 and manufacturing losing 1,500. Hialeah's largest employers are its hospitals, Palmetto General with 1,635 staff and Hialeah Hospital, the City itself, UPS beside the airport, and the grocers, Publix, Fresco y Más and Sedano's; 61.8% of its workers worked outside the city in 2024 but only 9.8% outside Miami-Dade, and the mean commute was 30 minutes. Greensboro's are Cone Health, with 13,000 in Guilford County, the schools and the City, and manufacturing, about one metro job in eight, 47,300, with the Volvo Group, Thomas Built Buses and Toyota's battery plant nearby, Mack Trucks and Volvo Trucks of North America headquartered in the city and Honda Aircraft at the airport; 71.8% of its workers worked inside the city, with a mean commute of 22 minutes. Median household income was $57,151 in Hialeah in 2024 and $63,516 in Greensboro, $6,365 more, against $80,625 across greater Miami and $66,072 across the Greensboro-High Point metro. The households differ in age and in language: Hialeah's median age is 46.0 against Greensboro's 34.9, and 72.7% of Hialeah's residents are of Cuban origin and 91.9% speak Spanish at home, while 13.5% of Greensboro's residents aged three and over are in college. Owners occupy 42.8% and 49.8% of their homes. Tax is where the states part. Florida takes no income tax, so $100,000 pays $13,449 in federal tax for 2025 in Hialeah; in Greensboro it pays about $17,157, $3,708 of it to North Carolina at a flat 4.25%, which falls to 3.99% for 2026. Sales tax is 7% in Miami-Dade against 6.75% in Guilford. Property tax is $4,042 a year higher on Hialeah's typical home than on Greensboro's median, which North Carolina's 2025 rate would match only at about $107,900 of income; at Hialeah's median household income the North Carolina tax would be about $1,887, so on these two houses an owner at that income pays about $2,150 a year less in Greensboro across the two taxes.
Neither is a city to live in without a car; the shares out of one are close, and Hialeah has the rail. In 2024, 1.4% of Hialeah's workers commuted by transit and 2.3% walked or cycled, against 1.6% and 2.8% in Greensboro, whose survey margins are wide; 68.5% and 67.3% drove alone. Hialeah is served by Miami-Dade's system, which carried 81,459,917 trips in 2025 on the National Transit Database's count: Metrobus across the city and Metrorail's Green Line, with Okeechobee and Hialeah stations inside it and the Tri-Rail and Metrorail Transfer Station on its southern edge, where Tri-Rail runs north to Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. The City also runs its own free buses, two routes and an on-demand service that carried almost 30,000 riders a month in 2023. The Greensboro Transit Agency carried 2,329,584 trips in 2025, less than half its 2012 peak and 9.1% fewer than in 2024, on about fifteen fixed routes that mostly meet downtown at the J. Douglas Galyon Depot, with routes for the colleges; why its ridership has fallen since 2024 was not found, and there is no rail transit. The Galyon Depot is also Greensboro's Amtrak station, with six round trips a day to Charlotte, Raleigh, Washington, New York, Atlanta and New Orleans, and 210,652 passengers in fiscal 2025. The densities differ almost fivefold: about 10,700 residents per square mile of land in Hialeah, a dense grid, and about 2,290 in Greensboro, where Interstates 40, 73 and 85 meet. Miami International, about 5.4 miles south of Hialeah's center, handled 55,314,661 passengers in 2025. Piedmont Triad International, which Greensboro shares with High Point and Winston-Salem, handled 2,029,298, with scheduled service to 14 US destinations, and the state's two larger airports are about 90 miles away at Charlotte and 77 at Raleigh.
Medicaid is the state line that matters most here, and the two cities sit far apart on what it leaves: Hialeah's uninsured rate was 15.1% in 2024 and Greensboro's 7.5%, against Miami-Dade's 12.4%, Florida's 10.9%, North Carolina's 8.6% and the national 8.2%. North Carolina has expanded Medicaid, and about 740,000 people statewide are covered through the expansion, though from 1 January 2027 most expansion adults must show 80 hours a month of work, school or volunteering and renew every six months. Florida has not expanded it. Hialeah has two acute care hospitals, Hialeah Hospital and Palmetto General, which Steward Health Care bought from Tenet in August 2021 and lost in its bankruptcy; a court approved their sale to Healthcare Systems of America on 25 October 2024. Greensboro has one system: Cone Health, a nonprofit acquired in December 2024 by Risant Health, which Kaiser Permanente created, runs Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital, 517 beds and a Level II trauma center, the largest hospital in its four-county region, with Wesley Long Hospital and a behavioral health hospital in the city. Neither profile verified a wait time. Both districts are county-wide and shrinking. Miami-Dade County Public Schools counted 18,910 fewer students on the first days of 2026-27 than at the end of 2025-26, a snapshot the October count will refine, and has closed or consolidated nine schools and put 27 more under review, none of them named in Hialeah. Guilford County Schools, the state's third-largest district, had 67,620 students in 2024-25 in 121 schools, has lost students since 2018-19 and proposed closing four small elementary schools in 2025. Hialeah has a Miami Dade College campus, open since 1980, the José Martí MAST 6-12 magnet academy and a public library system the City has run since 1924. Greensboro is a college city: N.C. A&T, the country's largest historically Black university, enrolled 15,275 in fall 2025 and UNCG 18,682, with Guilford College, Greensboro College and Bennett College besides, about twice the national share of residents in college.
What people underestimate is how differently the two property taxes behave after the purchase, and what neither carry includes. A City of Hialeah address pays 18.6468 mills, of which the City's own 6.3018 is a rate it has held for at least ten years, and pays neither the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue district's 2.3965 nor the county library district's 0.2812, because the City runs its own fire department and library out of that levy. It is charged on market value less a homestead exemption of $25,000 off every levy and a second slice off all but the school district's, filed with the property appraiser by 1 March of the year after you buy; without it Hialeah's typical home owes about $8,304. Save Our Homes then caps the assessment's growth at 3% a year, but it resets to market value on a sale, so the seller's bill is no guide. North Carolina has no homestead exemption like Florida's for an ordinary buyer, and Greensboro's bill works the other way round. A City address pays Guilford County's 78.95 cents and the City's 79.85 cents per $100 for fiscal 2027, the bills mailed in 2026, 158.80 cents in all, against 140.30 for 2025-26. Both rates jumped because Senate Bill 889, signed on 19 June 2026, put off the County's 2026 reappraisal, so the bills are still on the values of the 1 January 2022 revaluation, which the Department of Revenue found averaged 68.31% of sale prices; that is why 158.80 cents comes to about 1.085% of what a buyer pays. A buyer does not reset the assessment by buying, so the seller's bill is the guide to the 2026 one, but the 2027 bills go on the new values at rates not yet set. Greensboro charges stormwater and solid waste on the water bill, about $8.74 a month for a typical house on figures this site could only read secondhand. At closing, Miami-Dade charges the seller a documentary stamp of 60 cents per $100 on a single-family house, about $2,672 on Hialeah's typical home, with a 45-cent surtax on a condominium or duplex that brings it to about $4,676, and the buyer 0.55% of the loan, about $1,959; North Carolina charges the seller an excise of $1 per $500, about $644 on Greensboro's median, and nothing on the loan. Insurance is budgeted at $505 and $179 a month, against a Miami-Dade average of about $6,045 a year and NerdWallet's Greensboro average of $2,150. Neither includes flood, which from 1 January 2027 most new and renewing Citizens policies in Florida with wind cover must carry; in Hialeah the share of residents in a mapped flood zone runs from under a tenth in some parts of the city to all of the newest ground west of Interstate 75. In Hialeah, unpermitted additions are common enough that a permit search is a standard step. And both are growing slowly: Hialeah grew 3.5% from 2020 to 2025 and lost 2,210 residents in 2024-25, and Greensboro grew 3.2% and added 2,312.
Better here
- Violent crime was about 178 per 100,000 on the FBI's 2025 counts, about a quarter of Greensboro's 705, and there were 3 homicides against 37.
- January averages 19.7 C with no freezing nights on the normals, against 4.3 C, 68.4 freezing nights and 18.0 cm of snow in Greensboro.
- Metro unemployment was 3.7% in July 2026, not seasonally adjusted, against 4.1% around Greensboro, and the city's own rate 2.3% against 4.4%.
- Florida levies no income tax, so $100,000 pays $13,449 in federal tax for 2025 against about $17,157 in Greensboro.
- Two Metrorail stations are inside the city, Tri-Rail stops on its southern edge, and the City runs its own free buses.
- Miami International, which handled 55,314,661 passengers in 2025, is about 5.4 miles south of the city's center.
Worse here
- Mortgage, property tax and insurance come to about $3,425 a month on the June 2026 typical home, roughly 72% of median household income, against $2,231 and 42% in Greensboro, or $3,570 at the same 7.28% rate.
- On the same Zillow index the typical home is about 1.69 times Zillow's value for the City of Greensboro, on a median household income $6,365 lower.
- Insurance is budgeted at $505 a month against $179, before flood.
- Zillow's observed rent index was $2,374 in June 2026, about half of median income, against $1,392 and 26% in Greensboro.
- About two in five residents at the 2020 census lived in a mapped flood zone on the City's layer, and the rain normal, 1,852 mm, is the most of any Florida city here.
- The uninsured rate was 15.1% in 2024, against 7.5% in Greensboro, and Florida has not expanded Medicaid.
Choose Hialeah if
- you want a fraction of Greensboro's violent crime and homicide
- you want a 19.7 C January with no frost
- you work in Miami-Dade's hospitals, shipping, warehouses or groceries, or want Metrorail into Miami
- you want to live in Spanish, and will check the flood zone and the permits before the price

Hialeah or Greensboro, in short
Is Hialeah or Greensboro cheaper to live in?
Greensboro, on the house, the insurance and the rent, by a wide margin, and on pay that is a little higher. Both cities price in US dollars, though the headlines are different measures priced at different rates: Hialeah's typical home on Zillow's index was $445,331 in June, and Redfin's single-family median for the City of Greensboro $321,811 in August; on the same Zillow index Zillow's index for the City of Greensboro stood at $263,264. At 20% down the mortgage is $2,292 at August's 6.67% against $1,761 at October's 7.28%. Property tax is about $7,534 a year against $3,492 and insurance $505 a month against $179, so the three lines come to about $3,425 in Hialeah, or $3,570 at the same rate, and $2,231 in Greensboro, roughly 72% and 42% of each city's median household income, $57,151 and $63,516. Zillow's observed rent index was $2,374 against $1,392. North Carolina takes income tax, $3,708 on $100,000 for 2025, and Florida does not; sales tax is 7% against 6.75%.
Is Hialeah or Greensboro safer?
Hialeah, by a wide margin, on figures built the same way: the FBI's 2025 counts divided by Census estimates. Violent offenses ran about 178 per 100,000 in Hialeah and 705 in Greensboro, a little more than twice North Carolina's rate, and homicides were 3, about 1.3 per 100,000, against 37, about 12.0. Property offenses were 1,417 against 2,996, and Hialeah's is understated by car thefts missing from the FBI's copy; with the state's count it would be about 1,560. Both are falling: Hialeah's violent offenses have dropped every year since 2022, and Greensboro's fell 23% in 2025 and another 7% in March to August 2026.
Which has the better job market, Hialeah or Greensboro?
Hialeah's metro, on size and unemployment, and Greensboro's on household pay and jobs in the city. On the same unadjusted basis BLS put July 2026 unemployment at 3.7% for Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach and 4.1% for Greensboro-High Point, and at 2.3% in the City of Hialeah against 4.4% in the City of Greensboro. Miami-Dade had 1,349,400 nonfarm jobs in August and Greensboro's metro 374,600. Hialeah's employers are its hospitals, the City, UPS and the grocers, and 61.8% of its workers work outside the city; Greensboro's are Cone Health, manufacturing, about one metro job in eight, with Volvo, Mack, Thomas Built Buses and Honda Aircraft, and its universities, and 71.8% of its workers work in the city. Median household income was $57,151 in Hialeah and $63,516 in Greensboro.
Does Florida having no income tax make Hialeah cheaper than Greensboro?
Not for an owner on these two figures below about $107,900 of income. A single filer on $100,000 pays about $17,157 in Greensboro for 2025, $3,708 of it to North Carolina, against $13,449 of federal tax alone in Hialeah, and North Carolina's flat rate drops from 4.25% to 3.99% for 2026. But a homesteaded buyer pays about $7,534 a year in property tax on Hialeah's typical home against about $3,492 on Greensboro's median, a difference of $4,042, and Hialeah's insurance runs $326 a month more. At Hialeah's median household income of $57,151 the North Carolina tax would be about $1,887. For a renter the state tax is saved outright, though Zillow's rent index is $982 a month higher in Hialeah. Both bills can move: a Florida buyer is taxed on the price rather than the seller's capped value, and Greensboro's 2027 bills go on the County's 2026 values at rates not yet set.
