The islands are always on the move and that combined with the upward push from magma below, shifts and cracks and pushes things around. One new crack in just the right spot and your Lava Zone 3 can turn into a Lava Zone 1. There is risk EVERYWHERE on the island. No place is safe from eveything. I chose to take a gamble on Puna but I will make sure I have reserves so I can rebuild (or move) if I have to. I'm not interested in a huge mansion, just something that's comfortable. Pele takes it, it won't be the end of the world for me, I'll move on.
Hawai'i is the ultimate demonstration of the "temporary". Things are always changing, being made new and we have no choice but to accept it and enjoy what is given to us right now.
