Prices in the Miami, Broward and Palm Beach area rose 2.6%, while nationally the rate of inflation was 2.7% in 2025. Nationally, price rises were moderated by a 3.4% decrease in spending for gasoline, and the drop was even greater here, 4.8%. No other category saw prices drop across the nation, but in the Miami area costs of dairy and related products dropped 1.8% for the year, fruit and vegetable costs dropped 1.4%, recreation costs dipped 1.5%, and new car costs edged down a tenth of a percent. Figures year to year might not be exactly comparable: because of the federal shutdown, data for 2025 weren\u2019t available for October or the first half of November.<\/p>\n<p>EXPANDING E-VERIFY: The Florida House passed a bill that would require all private employers to use the federal E-Verify system to check the immigration status of new workers. The bill would expand a current law that requires public employers and private employers with 25 or more workers to use E-Verify. The bill passed 80-37.<\/p>\n<p>DEVELOPERS FORUM: A developers forum presented by the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce will offer panels on the impact of public-private partnerships on South Florida\u2019s real estate market as well as on the real estate vision in Miami\u2019s Freedom Park, which is now rising.
