El Portal is a village in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States. The name is derived from the Spanish term for "the gate", after two wooden gates that once stood as a gateway to the village. El Portal was originally annexed into the city of Miami in 1925.[5] With the arrival of the Great Depression, Miami gave up its jurisdiction, and El Portal was incorporated as its own village in 1937.[5] The village is part of the Miami metropolitan area of South Florida. As of the 2020 census, the population of El Portal was 1,986,[2] down from 2,325 in 2010.
