The observed population changes in Myrtle Grove may reflect broader urban trends such as gentrification, changing housing preferences, or economic factors affecting the Miami metropolitan area. Further research into local economic conditions, housing market trends, and community development initiatives would provide a more comprehensive understanding of these population dynamics.
