I never got "Rock Fever" when I was stationed in Hawaii. I loved my Hobie Cat.
Thank you for this topic. This is your subscriber from Los Angeles but watching over here on the big island. All I have to say is I love it over here on the big island and I’ve haven’t had any trouble over here on the big island and I am still trying to get used to the culture.. The difference between Los Angeles and Hawaii on the big island is the people are really nice versus the people in Los Angeles just so much toxic people from dirty streets disrespectful people just toxic stuff across the board. I know the big island has this little problems but nothing compared to Los Angeles. I myself do not live in Los Angeles. I just said it because Los Angeles is large, but I live near the Torrance area so we kind of have a moral compass over here. And your guest is right the one thing that I do miss is Mexican food but we do have a couple of people over here making tamales and you can get some tacos over here in HPP which our friend just opened up right on the highway 130 well you only can put so much in the comment section so thank you for this topic. Or should I save Mahalo😂🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 I forgot to say I haven’t had any trouble and I am a native black American.
Re:Good Mexican food in Hawaii/Oahu. Came across Mexi Papa Adventures
Add shay's smash near da seafood cartel and we same bruh.. You have good taste lol
@@Remykapel...Yeh, heard of Shay's but are they Mexican?
Good info guys
PRO for me is living there part time.my kids are playing outside instead of on a iPad/phone inside.l❤ the aloha spirit our community is amazing & love to share & talk story.CON is Mexican food I have to make salsa for the neighbors when I come to Oahu which I enjoy doing but I'm from Cali we are lucky to have so many food choices.the job market is tough in Oahu.i feel
There is many more pros then cons living in Hawaii.i think it's the persons likes or dislikes that make the difference
This was a very interesting video, in that, you brought up things that I was ready to go ballistic on what Hawaii, as a state, is now versus then. Thank you for this.
I found a sneaky good Mexican restaurant in the Ala Moana mall food court! I don’t remember the name, but every time I am on island I grab some tacos! It’s next to Chick-fil-A! Way better than any other Mexican I have tried on Island!
Why are many of the salaries/hourly wages in Hawaii so low relative to the mainland? What's keeping them down in a state where most of the living costs are widely recognized to be significantly higher?
Because there's no tech jobs, manufacturing jobs, industrial jobs etc... It's mostly hospitality and service industry based which are known for being low pay. They pay more than the mainland usually, but it's still not going to be very high generally. The minimum wage is currently 14 or 15 and will be 18 an hour by 2028. So, I think when the bottom wage is raised, the middle wages will be forced to come up as well. But service industry and hospitality/travel jobs have a lower average than other types of careers.
I never felt an "island fever," but maybe I wasn't there long enough.
Now, being one who hates heat, I imagine if I had a job in the heat, the lack of temperatures really cooling off might annoy me.
Island fever isn’t referring to your body temp changing, when someone says island fever they mean one might be tired of the island life and want to move away.
Oregon is awesome!!!!!!!! Do go... it's beautiful....everywhere
IMO the list of pros and cons depend on where on the mainland your point of view is coming from. For.someone in the Bay Area, Hawaii real estate is probably cheaper, so the cost of housing is not a con. For a surfer from Southern California, beach access might be a plus whereas someone from Denver might fear the ocean but just wants to be warm. Crime in Hawaii is probably worse than La Jolla but better than Long Beach. So it all depends.
Yes, Hawaii is beautiful and the weather is great, but I’m surprised you guys-being Realtors-didn’t mention this really awesome fact about Hawaii: Lowest property tax in the Nation. That’s a huge bonus that helps offset the otherwise expensive cost of living here.
I was surprised too they didn’t even mention that
Con. a dysfunctional permit process for commercial and residential building. Our mayor has failed us in this subject. Fixed the permit process and it will fix the economy.
I been living here on Oahu over 7 years. I will say haven’t had any issues. Maybe it’s because I have family here. I have agree Culture and Family is a pro for me. Also the Food is so Ono on all Hawaiian Islands 😊❤.
Mahalo for the comment
Try Sunset Texas Barbecue. They are classes above everything else. Even compared to the mainland.
Just looked it up. Thanks for the recco
My family is from Kauai and the type of people that have filled Kauai have made it where locals struggle to live a basic life. Locals are put in a position of servitude with no mechanism to improve their life. Cost of living is outrageous at the expense of locals. Politicians in Hawaii have abandoned the locals to appease people from the mainland.
Derek, don’t sleep on the New Orleans food scene!
Mexican n bbq is probably my biggest con as well!!!! Being from cali. Dickies isn't that good either!!!!
I’m just having a hard time finding a realtor who isn’t worried about their reputation with other agents, we put an offer on a bunch of homes and all they seemed to care about is their reputation vs helping us find the right place…
@@matchbyjulia not sure what state and city you’re looking in, but we can help you find a better fit through a referral. You see how we communicate on here. Everything from very technical underwriting of deals and professional speak to banter amongst colleagues. No ones shoots it straighter than CORE TEAM HAWAII. Other agents are not our concern, but we do understand the different types and how to navigate them. And while there are 10k agents in Hawaii there might be 15k personalities 🤣 it’s a crazy and tough industry to navigate.
@@movingtohawaii love it. We are looking on the big island. Kona or Captain Cook mainly. We gave up on Oahu, just too overpriced LOL
“Hyperpolitical”?
Didn’t rewatch it but I imagine we referred to California or parts of the mainland as hyper political when Hawaii is not..? Yes, that’s the case. We aren’t arguing about a man competing in women’s sports or what a president or president’s son did or didn’t do..at least not at the same rate you hear those convos in parts of the 48 states.
Hawaii great place to visit but quality of life been bad since the 1990s - only if I hit the lottery I would back
CONS: Too much crime in Oahu.
