According to the State of Florida, it's only Dade County. Miami is one of
several cities in Dade County. They do have a metro government (Dade County
went bust, and merged government with the city of Miami), however, the
county still exists as a geographical entity.

Similar governmental situations exist in Metro Nashville-Davidson County,
Tennessee, and Metro Lynchburg-Moore County, Tennessee.
I do thing the CQ list should be definitive for our purposes.

Hi Jack,
1. The county's real name is Richmond
2 The county's real name is Hillsborough
http://www.hillsboroughcountynh.org/
3. The county's real name is Miami-Dade http://miamidade.gov/
However do you really want the county's real name or the name given on the
County Hunters Award list? I think the later and that would give you one
source for all county names at http://www.countyhunter.com/counties.htm .
So according to the keepers of the award the names are:
1. Richmond (formerly Staten Island)
2. Hillsboro
3. Miami-Dade
The benefit of using the County Hunters name is if anyone complains you can
just send them to their web site for a fix.
