According to one survey, several Florida cities – including Miami – rank among the top places in the country to say goodbye to the current year.

The website WalletHub.com compiled a list of the 100 best places to celebrate on New Year’s Eve, with the Magic City coming in at number eight based on factors that included costs, entertainment options and safety.

However, Miami was not the top Sunshine State location as Orlando came in ranked number two nationally, just behind New York City. Tampa and Jacksonville also made the cut, while Hialeah snuck onto the list at No. 97.
