there are plenty subdivisions within a few miles of pahoa, so you have choices(if you can afford these outragous prices today). a year and a half ago i was at a tax auction and stopped bidding on a hpp lot when it hit $10000, now there're listing at 75,000 to $100,000. people are coming from the mainland(and other islands) and seem to not care how much it costs.
