En raison de ses relations économiques, culturelles et linguistiques avec l'Amérique du Nord, l'Amérique du Sud, l'Amérique centrale et les Caraïbes, cette ville mondiale est surnommée « Passage des Amériques » ou « Porte des Amériques ». Cette grande place portuaire est l'un des grands centres hispanophones des États-Unis autant par les puissants liens économiques de la Floride avec l'Amérique latine que par une importante minorité cubaine, toutefois en voie d'assimilation par son mode de vie américain. Ce pôle urbain, dont certains quartiers montrent une forte concentration de populations noires, est aussi francophone par sa minorité haïtienne, qui cumule les legs de la pauvreté.
