How and why are there so many barbershops around Miami?

I have about 12 (or more) within a 3 mile radius of my house.

To you barbers out there how are you guys making enough money to sustain your business and rent?

Some I see it dead and others are packed. Which tells me the competition is real out here.

I don't have much to say since I give myself a buzzcut at home (have been doing so for the past 20 years) so I can't say I have been to a barber for some time to understand the barber community/culture but everyday I keep seeing more and more open up all over the city.

I hate to say it but I'm sure a good portion of them are just fronts. It's is Miami after all lol
