only paul gave you the right answer. Miami sits in miami-dade county. It was dade county many years ago before it became miami-dade. If anyone tells you different it means they aren't a local.

The Miami-Dade Police Department is the police department of Miami-Dade County, Florida, which was formerly known as Dade County, Florida until 1997.

Dade County, Florida was named after Francis L. Dade, a soldier killed in the second Seminole war.

Dade means Dade County. Where Miami is a city, it lies in Dade County which is a larger area with its own local government and perhaps 20 cities. Miami-Dade or Metro-Dade means that some government agency like the police or fire, have merged and serve both places as one agency.

Dade is the name of the County. Miami is a city inside the county and also is the county seat. The name of the county was changed in 1999 to Miami Dade County. The Miami Dade Police is actually the Dade County Sheriffs Office. Their charter was changed to become a police organization, hence the name change. Before this they were called Metro Dade. But, Miami is a city in Dade County, it has its own government and police force. The name change was made to reflect the unincorporated parts of the county that had been come developed recently and give them sufficient police protection. By changing to Miami Dade County, they unincorporated areas could now be assigned postal codes and recieve government services, like streets and water. It also gave uniform quality amongst police departments inside the county.

Dade County Florida...
Miami city is in Dade County


AJ
Dade represents Dade County where Miami is.

Miami-Dade police is a combination city police and county sheriff's office because the city of Miami encompasses the entire county.
