Downtown Pahoa vs Honokaa (what's the difference?)

[punaticbychoice]

Money, political savvy, and a more stable area- lava wise, etc,,,,.
Just compare those factors. For example:
Honoka'a / Hamakua- Hawai'i County Council. Dominic Yagong, Valerie Poindexter.
Pahoa / Puna - Emily Neaole, Fred Blas, etc,,,,,,,,.
