There are a few things about Puna that stand out for me.
Puna and Kau districts are probably the last broad grasp of old time laid back Hawaii.
It's kind of like a time machine here which takes you back 30 years. There are good things and bad things about that.
While Puna has some of the appearance of suburbia with huge subdivisions of large lots it is in reality a rather poor agricultural district where many of the locals struggle to get by along side mainland retirees.
There is a pioneering spirit here long lost on the mainland. You can buy an acre or two can clear land for a home in much the same manner that was once done in Oregon.
Best to bring your own job. It is a common assumption that you need three ways to make a living and may need to employ all of them at once.
On any given day in Puna there are more problems than there are solutions. This district has been neglected for a long time. Many people like it that way.
Assume the best and ask questions.
