On the mainland, as you know its not uncommon for people to drive 30-60 minutes each way to work a job.
I've been looking at homes in Volcano Village, for many reasons, and I was told the home prices are less, because of the distance it is from Hilo.
I think its about a 30 minute drive ?
Basically, I was told that many locals dont like to go far from where they live for anything.
My questions or wonder is, what is the philosophy viewpoint in Hawaii, that many people choose to not want to travel far from their homes ? I understand, no one likes to spend an hour in a car for no reason, but, is there another reason I am unaware of ?
