Lived in Princeville on Kauai back in mid 80s. It was nice there, but then again, it’s a very expensive part of Hawaii, so, of course it would be.

I have heard if you’re white, you will not be liked, and unless you could afford to live in a place like Princeville, it’s bound to be an issue. But, since I never had to deal with that, can’t verify, but it makes sense. The only issue I had, was being in my mid twenties and getting rock fever, I did love the beauty, but I missed sidewalks and city life at night. Also, it’s tough to explain, but living on an island made me anxious in a way that is beyond describing.

noted, thanks. Due to the specialization that I am working on, and the work that I've done, getting a high-paying job should not be an issue.

The anxiety thing is scary though. I've lived on an island my entire life

I hope to live there (specifically Kauai) someday. My husband has a potential to get a job there in 5 years or so. I don’t want to live there for life, just spend a few years there. It’s very $$$.

Just know that, in general, Hawaii is not like it used to be.

Monsanto has decided to experiment on GMOs and chemicals on the West shore of Kauai. The island is beautiful, but don’t live on the west side. Specifically, don’t live near the coffee filelds. They spray them every day and my friend who did live there said the local community near the spraying has a 40% cancer rate. No thannks!

Oahu is getting too commercial, but I went there for over a week last summer and the north shore is still “country.” I hope it stays that way.

Big Island (aka Hawaii) seems to be the most old school and hasn’t allowed Monsanto there. Also it’s big enough to keep a country feel. You’d have to deal with volcanos sometimes there, but it might be worth looking into depending on what jobs are available.

Don’t know as much about the other islands. Just those 3.

@Le_Squish lives on Big Island, I believe. She might have some input.

They hate whites, so if you are a white male take that into account.

If you scared of guns and love obese waterbeaners, Hawai'i is the eye-land for you

I have been summoned to this thread as resident island nigger.

Realistically, you should expect to have a hard time.

http://www.city-data.com/forum/hawaii/. Read everything here. There is much honest discussion here from locals about the realities of living in Hawaii.

Now for your questions:

Crime

In general, Hawaii is a low crime place compared to most places in the US. We have a lot of petty theft and domestic violence but not so much random murders and muggings. Meth was introduced by the military and has been a serious community issue ever since. Homelessness is also a big problem here.

niggers

Hawaii is majority Asian and so you will be entering a situation where you as a white are nigger tier until proven otherwise. People in hawaii are openly racist and racial. They have no problem telling you that you aren't welcome and they think you should go home. They fully expect you to assimilate. Hawaii does have a significant population of whites on some islands but they are culturally diverse and you might not find the racial camaraderie you expect. As far as nigger niggers, Hawaii is 1% black but we got Micronesians by the thousands and they cause all the problems that traditional niggers do but somehow manage to be dumber. Polynesians (including native Hawaiians) are more of a mixed bag. They are generally as intelligent as whites but not as motivated and have different ideals of progress. Separatist aren't as prominent as the media pretends.

tech scene

Non existent. Unless you are capable of being self employed you probably will not stable work in your field. If you do find such a job, plenty of east Asians already to outcompete you.

academic culture

Not as liberal as the mainland. Colleges are currently downsizing. High schools desperately need teachers but Hawaii public schools are shit. If you can accept a modest life, you could probably make it with a charter school in a rural community. However, culture shock will still come into play.


In general, we recommend anyone that is thinking of moving to Hawaii to vacation for many months in different communities and have many months of savings. Most people that try to move here fail and go home broke after a year or two.

Ask me any question you want

Crime is high in certain areas - parts of Honolulu, any place where there is a high concentration of polynesian hawaiians.

The polynesian hawaiians are the island's niggers.

No tech scene. Just tourism.

No academic culture. Having a brain is considered bad there.

Taxes are high. State strongly supports welfare programs.

The biggest employer here is the federal government. To keep fed pork flowing that state implements any welfare measure they can find.
