Review of Honolulu, Hawaii


Fantastic climate
Star Rating - 1/18/2011
Honolulu area boasts a great climate. It is normally in the 70' to 80's all year. There is a great mix of outdoor activities and many cultural events. Plenty of beaches and water sports to enjoy.

Though secluded on an island technology abounds here.
Having lived on the mainland USA I have also been impressed with the quality of health care here.
There are also many social programs here to utilize or volunteer for.

The trade off is that the cost of living is high and in many job categories the pay is low. Many families live together here. The bus system is good and many people here get along without a vehicle. The drawback is if you want to visit off island then you have to fly, which can get expensive.

All in all it is a nice place to live with fantastic weather, if you can adjust to the trade offs.
