Finding the Perfect Community

[Carolann R]

We live in Hawaiian Shores. There are CC&R's and we pay a yearly association fee. The lots are approximately 15,000 sq. ft. It's lovely here. The coqui are loud. We have paved roads, cable tv, mail delivery and private water so no catchment. We have a small Japanese kine house and many Japanese neighbors who are very quiet and also nice. There's a community center here with a pool for the residents of Hawaiian Shores to use.

We see some wild boar, and last week a wild turkey strutting through the yard. Many cats (which belong to our neighbor friends) live on our street and visit us often, they are friendly.

It's a bit of a drive into Hilo for my husband each day but really about the same as it was to his job in Scottsdale, AZ. Not a big deal except for the gas prices, of course.
