Hello everyone,
I am new to the website and will soon be new to your island. I visited several years ago for my honeymoon and have been thinking about you island ever since. My husband and I finally decided on making the move this year. I have been meeting wonderful people through my research that are giving lots of great information, including telling me about this website. My question is the following: I visited Maui, Oahu and Hawaii. I loved Hawaii the most especially Hilo. However, in the research I am doing in order to move and the questions I am asking I am getting information that is confusing me to no end! I purchased a relocation e-book and the information I am getting from there is basically not to even think of moving to the Hilo side of the island. To make a long story short all horrible things have been told to me by some o the people I have met about the Hilo side of the island. I was set on moving to this area and even found a good person who recommended it to me and gave this website and other websites to look for houses in Puna. What is going on with the differences between the two sides? I feel almost a sense of arrogance from those that I speak to that live on the Kona side but have also met those who claim it can be the same there or in Hilo. I loved it all and have a trip planned for Hilo soon. Can someone please tell me why all the bad (BAD)talk about he Hilo side of the island by these people I am meeting.
