Pahoa's History and Future
#31
All these villages along the east coast were plantation villages. When the plantation business model fell apart, they gradually were acquired by the workers. Land deals went on from there. Pahoa is no different from the other plantation villages, things just stay the same because that's the way it is. Puna is very fortunate to have enough rain that out of control fires are very rare. Old Pahoa village is like a powder keg, with everything all connected together, and hundred year old wood.

Kea'au kind of stands out because they decided they were too termite infested and maintaining a wild west old town wasn't seen as workable, especially in the location. Starting at 1:21, there are a few slides comparing old Kea'au village and now.

With the Socal development plan for Pahoa area nailed in a coffin, things are mostly going to stay in stasis where it is now, for years to come.
