Life in Mililani (Mauka) - 9/20/2009
Mauka, in Hawaiian, means "toward the mountains". When referring to Mililani, Hawaii, it means that portion of Mililani Town which lies close to the Ko'olau mountains, the major mountain range running mostly north-south which divides the island of Oahu into what are commonly referred to as the windward (eastern) and leeward (western) sides. It is separated from what local folks call the Mililani Town area by the H-2 freeway, with the newer 'Mililani Mauka' residential area on the mountain side and the older Mililani Town portion on the "Makai" (toward the ocean) side. Most island folks don't use the usual mainlanders' north, south, east & west direction references.
The Mililani Town area includes all three of the main shopping centers (Mililani Town Center, Mililani Shopping Center & Mililani Market Place). Conversely, Mililani Mauka is primarily residential with the occasional one small gas station and very small strip mall near my home. I guess the main thing one

All the amenities - 1/30/2009
Mililani Town has all the amenities you would need. So much so that you don't need to make the commute to downtown Honolulu. We have a YMCA, a public library, the best Wal-Mart on the island, 2 Long's Drugs, 3 supermarkets, 2 McDonald's, many physicians, variety of dining out options at every price level, 14 screen movie theatre, 7 recreation centers, many parks and very close to Costco w/ gas, Premium Outlet mall (Waikele), major shopping mall (Pearlridge). Everything is very convenient. A drive to the one of the cleanest beaches on the island (Ko Olina) is only 40 minutes away. The only downside is if you work in Honolulu. That daily commute during rush hour will take a solid 2 hours out of your day -- 1 in the AM and 1 in the

Mililani Climate - 8/23/2008
The climate of Mililani is more temperate than the warmer, drier conditions typically found in urban Honolulu, due primarily to Mililani's higher elevation -- from 700 to 1050 feet above sea level.
Summer highs are generally in the low to mid 80s while overnight lows cool to the upper 60s and low 70s. Wintertime highs are most often in the mid 70s to low 80s with nighttime lows mostly in the 60s, occasionally dipping into the upper 50s. The moderate temperatures and dominating trade winds allow one to live quite comfortably with just ceiling fans, saving considerably on expensive air conditioning.
During the 11 years we have been living here we have averaged about 60 inches of rain per year in Mililani Mauka -- Mililani Town would likely receive a bit less. The winter months are by far the wettest while August and September are the driest. Rainfall is generally consistent enough to sustain a lawn but irrigation may be needed during a few, brief periods
