Upper Eastside, a neighborhood in Miami, Florida, currently exhibits characteristics of a Moderate Diversity community with a Hispanic Plurality. As of 2022, the Hispanic population comprises 45% of the neighborhood, followed by White (33%) and Black (19%) residents. The median income in 2022 was $66,436, reflecting a middle-class urban area. Upper Eastside is known for its historic MiMo District (Miami Modern architecture).

Over the past decade, Upper Eastside has undergone a notable transition in its racial composition. In 2013, the neighborhood could be categorized as having Moderate Diversity with a relatively even distribution among Hispanic (36%), White (32%), and Black (28%) populations. By 2022, it had shifted to a Hispanic Plurality, with the Hispanic population growing to 45% while the Black population decreased to 19%. This shift appears to be part of a Transitional Community trend, with the Hispanic population showing consistent growth over the years. The increase in the 'race_two_or_more' category from 0% in 2013 to 3% in 2022 further supports this transitional nature, indicating increasing diversity and cultural mixing.

The demographic shifts have been accompanied by fluctuations in median income. From 2013 to 2022, the median income increased from $64,594 to $66,436, a 2.9% growth. This overall trend masks significant year-to-year variations. There was a substantial spike in median income to $81,861 in 2021, followed by a sharp decline in 2022. These economic fluctuations may be both a cause and effect of the demographic changes. The increasing Hispanic population could be attributed to economic opportunities attracting new residents. Conversely, the rising diversity might be contributing to the area's economic resilience, as evidenced by the overall upward trend in median income despite yearly fluctuations.
