@@808NoaQ , why? Is it because you think this place is rotten, or because you think it's so wonderful that it would be spoiled if too many people move here? Maybe Hawaii SHOULD be a secret. No place on earth even comes close to the opportunity for happiness here. But I would disagree with you, because many people don't have the courage to pull up their roots and make the choice to come here, and most of the people who move here eventually leave -- because of family on the mainland, or because of better career opportunities elsewhere. It takes a special kind of person to stay. You need to be committed to becoming part of the local society and culture and even the language, and not just some detached person in a gated community or a haole enclave. I've subscribed to your channel. Aloha.

i love how you covered multiple islands, a lot of people tend to just cover a few key points of one island or the big cities, and there is so much more to Hawaii than Oahu and Honolulu

Loved in Oahu in the early 80s. I remember thinking of buying a 2 br. condo for 99,000. at that time interest rates were 10-12%. I didn't buy. I resided all over the island. Schofield Barracks, Miillani, Makaha, Sunset Beach Ewa Beach and Pearl City. I was 22 and had the time of my life. Everything said in the video is the same as it was 40 years ago even the Big Island. I eventually got "rock fever" and moved to Vegas. It was a great experience especially after leaving Maryland after college. graduation. Thanks, Nick for the video.

As a Japanese-American, born and raised on Oahu, I’d day this video was pretty accurate overall. Although, there were some things that needed editing, like the map saying rich people living on the west side of Oahu is wrong, some of the video scenes didn’t match (Diamond Head is NOT on the north shore, and Waikiki, although part of the greater Honolulu area, is not downtown Honolulu), and some minor things like spelling and pronunciation of places. You probably should have interviewed a real “local” person, and not a transplanted military guy, as most military people don’t get immersed into the local culture and people. A lot of them live on the military bases and shop at the Navy exchange (which offers cheaper products, from groceries to furniture). Personally, I used to go to the “neighbor islands”, as we call it more when I was younger, just for sightseeing, as I don’t have any relatives on any of the other islands. I don’t think too many people have relatives on the other islands, like the guy was saying, unless maybe you are native Hawaiian. Flights from Oahu to Kauai are about 15-20 mins. / Oahu to Maui about 20-25 mins. / Oahu to Hawaii or “Big Island” about 35-40 mins. I lived in Las Vegas for about four years and loved it because, like you said, not everyone in Hawaii is a surfer, and I don’t go to the beach, so I didn’t miss it. I had to return to living in Hawaii for personal reasons and I actually miss living in Las Vegas. The reason a lot of people from Hawaii visit Las Vegas is because gambling is not legal in Hawaii. And a lot of people move to Las Vegas because the cost of living is a lot lower than in Hawaii -homes/rent is cheaper, food is cheaper (no tax on groceries), there is no state income tax, and there are a variety of jobs available there. Besides, you’ll always have visitors from Hawaii because they like to go there to gamble and vacation, and it’s not a really long flight to get there -about 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 hours.

She has a sister who lives in Vegas and a daughter and 2 grandkids who stay Big Island. We stay Ewa ( Leeward ) and are far from rich, more like lower class pretending to be middle class, although if I made the same amount of money and lived in Nevada, we would be doing really good and living comfortable. Buy hey, this is Paradise, and I sure as hell do not miss Detroit. Much Love and Aloha everyone. Have a beautiful day and God bless.

Lived in Honolulu for 12 years, 1983-1995, loved every minute of it, embraced the culture and had many local friends. I will always love the most beautiful place on this earth. I worked for the federal government and left when retirement age rolled around. I knew it would be hard living there on retirement income and headed home to Virginia. If I ever hit the lottery, I would be on the first plane out headed back. I miss it a lot even though I know things have changed a great deal.

Nice I just finished binge watching all these over the past 2 days and boom, Hawaii uploaded 8 minutes ago!!!! Let’s gooooo!!!

Wherever you go in the world, it will be fairly similar. Wealth is accumulated within a smaller group and most people, especially without college, they are generally working to stay afloat. Where people have low education and low opportunity crime is higher. Hawaii would possibly be a good place to test a guaranteed income, tax income from hospitality, and pass the cost onto tourists. I used to ship products to Hawaii back when I was in distribution. Things, particularly groceries, are very expensive because freight to Hawaii is expensive, and volume is low.

i actually learned everything i wanted to know about Hawaii from this video, thanks Nick you rock

My husband just watched this. We agreed, you really got it right. You didn’t miss a thing. Really excellent. He is from Hawaii (Manoa). We met in college at UH. We moved to So. Cal. (my native home) after marrying. Even in the 1970s, people had to work multiple service jobs, cost of living was high, foreign investors overpaid for homes so it jacked up housing prices. We felt we’d never make it. A lot of local people leave and move to the mainland. West Coast and Las Vegas. We have cousins on Oahu. We love visiting and feel homesick when we are there. We could never move back. We left So. Cal. years ago. It became too expensive and crime ridden. When we were dating, we used to picnic at Ala Moana Beach Park. We went back for a funeral in 2010. Ala Moana was loaded with tents full of homeless people. It must be exponentially worse now. Really a third world country. Very rich and very poor. Has always been a tension/resentment between locals and military and locals and haoles. Sounds worse now. When my husband was in school in the late 1960s, they had “Kill Haole Day”. Charming. I went to a large public high school in Honolulu. I really liked it, but I knew which bathrooms to stay out of so I didn’t get beat up. If you’re married to a local (he’s Filipino) and are considered a “local haole” you’re accepted better. I really loved the time I lived there in spite of the occasion tensions. I hung out with local girls when I was in school. They taught me the ropes. I didn’t hang out with other haoles. A lot of them were old people, homeless hippies, or kids living on military bases. I made a point of fitting in during school, dressed like other local girls, and just naturally picked up pidgin. I was a friendly kid, so that didn’t hurt. One thing has never changed. Never leave anything in a rental car. You will get your trunk popped 100% of the time. Takes 2 minutes. We feel lucky we lived there when we did. When he was a very little boy, his parents owned a small home in Waikiki. He used to play with his toy trucks on the sidewalk. There’s probably a high rise there now.

Thank you so much for breaking down the state of Hawaii. You always make such interesting and educational videos. I’m really enjoying the interviews with a local at the end of each video. It gives a realistic perspective of what it’s like to live in the state. I sincerely appreciate the work you do. God Bless you Nick.

Visited Oahu in 2017, and we observed the customs and enjoyed our stay, very much. Sure, Oahu is very much the "Vegas" of the Pacific but, we sought out the Aloha, and we found it.The charm of old Hawai'i is still there, just have to look for it. Wore classic Aloha and left a fresh lei at the feet of Kamehameha's statue in Honolulu, in thanks for a wonderful visit, to the Island. The people we met were so kind, and we always showed respect. My father was born on Oahu in 1949, while my grandfather operated a radio station in Honolulu. They lived there for four years or so, after the war. Hope to explore the other islands and enjoy the beauty they poses. Island time is a real thing, and I got used to it, quickly.

Visited Oahu for a week 21 years ago and have always wanted to go back to visit another island. My takeaway was meeting so many refugees from Houston escaping the hellish Houston summer, and when going beyond the tourist areas, all I could do is compare Hawaii to being a tropical version of West Virginia.

You pretty much broke it down to a precise explanation of life in Hawaii. You diversely explained each island in differentiated social and economic strata especially the homelessness and poor living condition. the theft and drug use stems from the high cost of living and corrupt state government who's constantly being audited by the U.S. government. Especially in Oahu. there is also the sovereign battle for proper ownership and military free leasing and illegal land selling by state governments that has been going on for a long time that has played a crucial part in our poverty and poor governing system. Again, you did a great job explaing living in Hawaii. I can say that. I've been here all my life over 50 years.

As someone who just visited the Big Island spending my time in the Puna District. I found the people who live there warm and friendly. I knew that right off the bat that I was there to experience the local culture. I went to Hawaiian Volcanoes National Park and I was in awe of the beauty of the park. I have some online friends who I was able to meet. I also made even more friends. I also saw the lava flows from the 2018 eruption of Kilauea Volcano that destroyed many homes in Lealani Estates near Pahoa. I could live there very easily and afford it.

My family and I grew up in Oahu and we were dirt poor for many years. Things got much better for us when we moved to Texas 20 years ago.

That’s not really true. Quite often, the trade winds are replaced with southerly, or what we call “Kona winds” which brings warmer, more humid weather, and possibly “vog” -smoke from the volcano on the Big Island (Hawaii). Vog can cause eye irritation, trouble breathing in some people, off smells, and lowered visibility. In the summer months, the trade winds don’t really make a difference. When it’s 88 to 90 degrees outside, the wind is just blowing hot air around. In the 70’s and 80’s we didn’t really need A/C in the house, but nowadays we can’t live without it.

It will be the tourists trades that commercialize it and inadvertently preserve it sort of.

Reminds me of Las Vegas. People not from there just think of the tourist attractions but don’t realize people live there and there are many in low paying service jobs to service those tourists. There’s super flashy places and poor neighborhoods at the same time.

Oahu is the best place to be stationed in the Military. I was on that Marine Base that's on the peninsula next to that beach Nick showed a few times for 3.5 yrs in the 90s. It's great. The government pays for your housing or offers you a place on a base. Every service (even the Coast Guard) has a huge base on the islands. The 'what should we do on the weekends' when you are there can include 'lets go to Waikiki Beach.' They used to have free parking there at this old Army fort called Fort Derussy, but I think they have cut back on the # of military parking spots since then a lot. Three of the most scenic roads in the USA are the LikeLike, Pali and H-3 Highways that take you over the mountain from the Winward side to downtown Oahu or Pearl Harbor. Crazy rides.

"As a tourist, you've been lei'd..." LOL Loving your script, Nick!

I live in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. I am not wealthy and not retired. I work an average job. Been here 12 years. I've lived in 4 states and in Mexico over my lifetime. I visited here for the first time more than 30 years ago and I knew almost on my first day that this place was home. The people have always been so welcoming, and I try as much as I can to fit in to the local culture, and even Hawaiian history and language, if I can. I've traveled to many countries and I've thought about living in a number of them. I have no qualms about leaving the US for a better life or a better climate. No need -- this is the best place on earth. If you know how, it's not really that hard to deal with the high cost of living. Thousands of local Hawaiian families can do it. You just need to identify your priorities and make connections, because the best things here are free. Living in America's suburbs, we all learned that we don't need to live in big cities to derive the cultural benefits from them. We could always drive to the big city for shopping malls, museums, concerts and sports arenas. Here in Kona, I don't have that access, but television and the internet has changed our society so much that much of that marketplace and entertainment is now available online. Meanwhile, many of us here couldn't care less about mainland politics, celebrity gossip and societal issues. Even the Leftiest Left and the MAGA Right are kind of out of place here. The only flags flying from local pickup trucks are local guys for Hawaiian sovereignty.

When I was 20 back in 2008 my family and I did in fact take a plane from SFO to hawaii. It was actually for a family friend's wedding and he was getting married to a woman who I think was native Hawaiian and had a bunch of family there. Anyways the island we were on was of course Maui. It is pretty beautiful there, but I guess because I'm used to beaches not far from where I live, I did actually think it was over hyped. At least the beaches aren't insanely cold like they are where I'm from, but another thing that might have kind of messed things up for me is that I had the worst sunburn in my life when I went to the ocean on the very first day of the trip.

Glad you love my home Hawaii! I live in 5 months in Waikaloa. My Ohana live in Oahu. Beautiful place. Volcano chased many away. COVID-19 and extensive rules keep folks away. Next time you are traveling let me know…show you local great places. Aloha my bruddah…

Mike - I'll be there next month. Email me maybe I can get your perspective! NickJohnsonNC18@gmail

Hawaii's great if you're older and rich. If you're younger and not so rich it kind of sucks in alot of ways..I live on the big island, been here since 2011 I'm 24, everything from rent (if you're lucky to find a rental or an apartment) cost of food, gas, everything is more expensive. Basically zero job opportunities here, the ever increasing drug and homeless problem which nobody brings up...yea leaving Hawaii in December, can't wait!

I spent six months on the big island and Oahu back in the 80s and every local kid I met couldn't wait to leave for the mainland. Good luck to you. Where are you headed?

The best burger and best coconut pie I ever had was at a place called 'Huli Sue's' I think that was the name. But it was in Waimea. I sadly heard they are no longer around.

I'm up in Volcano, yes literally 10.5 miles from the crater. I love it so much, I'm never leaving. Been here nearly 15 years, left N.Shore because the taxes cranked up so high... Still high costs on BI, and yes you will need some money for sure. LOL

I grew up on Oahu and it's not the same today The 70s was much better !! It definitely did not look that way!! Was safe and beautiful!!

Nice video, Nick! Very informative 👍

Youre always funny 🇨🇦

Idea: after you run out of states to unbox. I suggest unboxing the top 20 biggest cities and top 10 metro areas. note: this is just a suggestion.

Excellent work - I had some good Hawaiian friends in College and somewhat knew the culture - but never knew the ins and out of the various islands.

Fun fact.... 5 US State Capitals are located West of Los Angeles, CA. (Update) Nevada joined the list. Now 6.

I attended the U. Of Hawaii in 1967 and rented an oceanfront apartment in Waikiki and I thought my rent was high then- it’s crazy expensive now!
