So then, it could be possible that someone with the financial means to either buy or build their dream retirement home, in an area, apparently acceptable to be referred to as a "ghetto," while ignoring the historical significance of that term, mostly by white transplanted mainland males, and who only seek the solitude and lush tropical beauty that Puna brings, is a very real possibility, instead of the closed minded, holier than thou, superiority complex of "you live in the Puna ghettos because you are a low wage earning trailer park lover" mentality?
How else can there be a "gem" in the Puna "ghetto?"
