Miami is an unincorporated community recognized as a local urban district[2] in southern Manitoba, Canada, which was formed in 1885.

That same night a house fire was reported and no street signs were available for directions.

[citation needed] Most of the streets in the community are named after prominent past residents or pioneers.

Miami was used in a controversial prank contest by Winnipeg radio station Classic Rock 97.5 FM (CJKR) morning man Scruff Connors in 1995.

[citation needed] Because of the negative backlash of the prank, CJKR terminated Connors' contract within days of the incident.
