Update
is an unincorporated agricultural community in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States. It is about southwest of Miami, Florida. Many farms, original clapboard homes of early settlers, u-pick'em fields and coral rock walls dot the landscape. It is named for the red clay that dominates the area, on top of a massive layer of oolite rock. The entire area is nourished with pure water from the Biscayne Aquifer.
It has been a source of amazement to agriculturalists, botanists and naturalists around the world, including John James Audubon and David Fairchild.
Some are referring to the area as the "New Hamptons", since there are many people from the northern states buying property and moving into the area.
Many houses built in the area must be on a minimum of of land, a law put into place to thwart development that has so far worked perfectly to preserve the area.
Peacocks live abundantly and freely within the many groves. Redland has also been designated a Wild Bird Sanctuary.
