I guess it all depends what cities you are comparing it to because a lot of tourest visit their it can get a bit hectic at times I have visited Honolulu over 20 times and I like it a lot you just have to go with the flow

never been there

Personaly, I would prefer to live and work on Kauai. Oahu is too busy, closest to a large mainland city. Her’s a link to business info.

Mid-Pac is a VERY good school! I do not personally attend that school, but i do know the headmaster’s son. The campus is very beautiful and historic as well. It is one of the top schools on the island! Well I do know that the community does not hold a grudge against the school. Any one who attends that school is bound to get a good education. If you have any further questions I would be happy to contact my friend and i could let you talk to the headmaster himself! Check out this link to learn more:

Good points: people are friendly and interesting (multicultural); food is outstanding; incredible scenery; very warm climate (when it gets down to 65 F people start putting on jackets!). Lots of outdoor activities: swimming, surfing, windsurfing, hiking. More men than women (this could be a good point or a bad point, depending on your personal point of view!).

Bad points: rush-hour traffic is truly awful and lasts about 4 hours twice a day. Very expensive place to live–salaries don’t begin to keep up with the cost of living. Either renting an apt or buying a house is very, very expensive. Food costs a lot. Sales tax on everything, including groceries. Some people get “island fever”–Oahu is only 38 miles in each direction.

It is loads better than anyplace buried under three feet of snow three to four months a year, anyplace where a dozen people get murdered on an average weekend, way better than a city choking on smog. The cost of living is high, if you can’t earn at least two thousand a month then stay whereever you are comnfortable making less than that – - [ since there are a lot of tourists you will need to stay at least five years before people get comfortable with the thought that you won’t be running away. The work world is one where no one rocls the boat. If you are the type who wants to change things, shake things up around the workplace, you won’t be received very well. It can be daunting living on an Island. There is no hitchhiking to the next city or state. If you like to swim & surf then this is the city for you. Peace.

It’s a private school. The curriculum is very nice and has good reputation. It’ll cost more so check with the school on tuition and fees.

It has a good reputation. One of my friend’s sons graduated from there.

Hawaiian’s are usually those who are native Hawaiian. Better to say “people from Hawaii” to refer to the rest of us.

It’s a good school. A small school so generally it’s not in our thoughts. But’s it’s viewed well in the community.

its agreat city , and the people there are very warm and friendly :

Honolulu” redirects here. For the city and county, see City & County of Honolulu. For the film titled Honolulu, see Honolulu (1939 film)
Honolulu is the capital and largest community of the U.S. State of Hawaiʻi. In the Hawaiian language, honolulu means “sheltered bay” or “place of shelter.” The census-designated place (CDP) is located along the southeast coast of the island of Oʻahu. The term also refers to the District of Honolulu (see Geography below). As of July 1, 2004, the U.S. Census Bureau estimate for Honolulu puts the population at 377,260 and that of the city and county (essentially, the Island of Oʻahu) at 900,000. In Hawaiʻi, local governments operate only at the county level, and the City & County of Honolulu encompasses all of the Island of Oʻahu (approximately 600 square miles).
