It is the oldest municipality in the Miami metropolitan area, having been incorporated as a city two years before Miami in November 1894 . Although West Palm Beach is located approximately 68 miles (109 km) north of Downtown Miami, it is still considered a principal city within the Miami metropolitan area, due to the solid urbanization between both cities . The estimated population of the Miami metropolitan area, which includes all of Palm Beach County, was 6,012,331 people at the 2015 census . </P> <P> The beginning of the historic period in south Florida is marked by Juan Ponce de León's first contact with native people in 1513 . Europeans found a thriving native population, which they categorized into separate tribes: the Mayaimi in the Lake Okeechobee Basin and the Jaega and Ais people in the East Okeechobee area and on the east coast north of the Tequesta . When the Spanish arrived, there were perhaps about 20,000 Native Americans in south Florida . By 1763, when the English gained control of Florida, the native peoples had all but been wiped out through war, enslavement, or European diseases . </P>
