Beneath the plain lies the Biscayne Aquifer a natural underground source of fresh water that extends from southern Palm Beach County to Florida Bay it comes closest to the surface around the cities of Miami Springs and Hialeah Most of the Miami metropolitan area obtains its drinking water from the Biscayne Aquifer As a result of the aquifer it is not possible to dig more than 15 to 20 ft (5 to 6 m) beneath the city without hitting water which impedes underground construction though some underground parking garages exist for this reason the mass transit systems in and around Miami are elevated or at-grade. !
