About Fisher Island

Fisher Island is a census-designated place in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States, located on a barrier island of the same name in the Miami metropolitan area of South Florida. As of the 2020 census, it had a population of 561.

Fisher Island is a private residential and resort community recognized for its high concentration of wealth and restricted access. Media and real estate reports frequently cite it as one of the most expensive and affluent Zip codes in the United States.

Named for automotive parts pioneer and real estate developer Carl G. Fisher, who once owned it, Fisher Island later became associated with the Vanderbilt family, whose private estate helped establish the island's enduring prestige. Unlike other wealthy enclaves in the United States, Fisher Island has no road or causeway connection to the mainland; it is accessible only by yacht or private ferry, with ferry guests required to obtain pre-arranged security clearance.
