    You drive through North Shore to get to Kailua? That must take you hours. Once, I had a girlfriend that lived in Waianae and I lived in Kaneohe. She had never been to Kaneohe before and I had never been to Waianae before we met. This was back in the 90s, and I think more people come to the Windward side more these days.

    Last summer our family stayed in an Airbnb in Kailua for six weeks. I definitely agree with you with the pros and cons. We met great people there but there were also others that acted like their s**t don’t stink, straight up racist, or ignorant. We were really fortunate that the Waimanalo community that was next town over welcomed us to their neighborhood and became part of their ohana.

    I've live here in Kailua for around a year now and I love it. But to the last point there is a lot of entitlement I've seen here. And they will let you know if they have money in your own way. I didn't get that as much in Kaneohe.

    @@movingtohawaii Sure I can try my best to answer this, (and for the record I really love this area and have no plans moving from the east side of Oahu any time soon) but when your going around Kailua town you get a sense of wealth and a pride of where they live. So much so I've went to local restaurant and have been passed up by waiters (a few different times) to service more upscale locals that have made a name for them self's around the town. And they have that sense of entitlement when it happens. Now to be honest this could be because of me and "I don't get it yet living here" But with that said there is the flip side to that. Every Sunday I go to Morning Brew and I have the most amazing conversations with people that live here. So its odd in some ways and hard to explain in others. I guess the best way I can put it from my perspective that I feel like an outsider always looking in. But this could happen any where on the island? But I would totally buy a house here and live here for the rest of my life. lol Ok sorry for the really long post
