== Fun facts ==
* In 1947, Miami Springs (of which it was then a part) passed an ordinance outlawing horses from the city limits. In response, about 50 citizens decided to break away and form their own village.
** The village is named for the Virginia home state of many of the wealthy transplants which made up the founding residents. At the time of incorporation, many of the residents owned large estates, some up to 5 acres, suitable for horse ownership. Only a single 1-acre residential property remains within the village limits today; the bulk of residential property now consists of 0.2-acre lots typical of suburban developments.
* Virginia Gardens has a high percentage of Colombian residents.
* Virginia Gardens doesn't have much amenity-wise to offer. It has a Denny's, Pizza Hut, Candlewood Suites, Basilico Ristorante, Yuka Deli, Bryson's Irish Pub, A Little Bit of Philly, and that's about it.
