Where Would You Go?!

          I would love to go to Hawaii!  This place looks wonderful in pictures and even more beautiful in real life. There’s a lot of pull factors to this little island. Well, not very little. In 1959, is was made to be our 50th state. There’s a little more to this unique islands history. Around 300-500 AD, Polynesians from the South Pacific, probably the Marquesas Islands, found the Hawaiian Islands in double-hulled voyaging canoes. The first heiau was built on the Big Island of Hawaii in 500 AD and by 900 AD all the main Islands were occupied. The state of Hawaii consist of eight main islands: Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Kahoolawe and the big Island of Hawaii. Hawaii is the only state that grows coffee and one of the most isolated states in the world.

Mostly the push factors are: Honolulu, USA Honolulu Population Profile Population Change, 1980-2000: 4.8%Population Density: 4,336 people per square mile 73,093 6,038 207,588 25,457 16,229 3,318 people don’t prefer hawaiian education system Push Factors Pull Factors Honolulu is the biggest city in Hawaii and has one of the few international.Hawaii residents often times complain about the islands’ high cost of living. When compared to the continental United States, the differences are indeed stunning. Everyday things, such as groceries, cost an average of 30 percent more in Hawaii than on the Mainland. One might think that this is due to high shipping costs (since most of the food available in the islands is brought here on ships and airplanes). But this is not the main reason. Shipment is only a minor factor, adding perhaps no more than five percent to the retail price of food. A much bigger factor is the need for grocers to maintain larger inventories in order to keep things on the shelves at all times. (Grocers on the Mainland are much closer to the food source). Also, retailers here pay a lot more for the use of land and buildings than on the Mainland. Another factor is Hawaii’s four percent excise tax, which adds on to the total cost of things.

All in all Hawaii s a very pretty,beautiful place to move to it also has its push and pulls to different people. The natural disasters are very destructive to the places around so i guess it’s what you think. Its a very expensive place to live and aso a very poor place. Tropical weather is legit amazing to me personally as a person. I hope you see the different point of views in moving to a very far place. Not very well place ride if you don’t like planes
