    The other cons- police and government corruption and cover ups of crime and set ups. Most people won’t find this out unless they have dealt with it personally or know people who did. Also- Zuckerberg. Shady Billionaire Zuckerberg who has a lot of controversy around him and has been suspected by the public of child SA and murder (Epstein flights list). He is stealing the land from local people and trying to steal the beaches. If people and children begin to go missing, you wouldn’t know if the police did it or Zuckerberg.😢 many people, especially young women, have gone missing in Kauai. “The killing fields” are the cane fields of the main hwy just past Lihue where the police have been rumored to take the young girls and women to rape and kill. 😢 Very evil things there. So sad. Small island and no way out for victims. Other than that kauai is one of the most beautiful natural rural islands to live and has such amazing heavenly beauty everywhere you look.

    Unfortunately, Kauai suffers from Island 🏝️ mentality; low work effort, prevents people from reaching their potential, and it is a haven for the drug culture. The best advice I can give to anyone graduating from High School on Kauai: Move off the island to anywhere on the planet that offers more opportunity and a lower cost of living. Kick ass, save money, excel, and years down the line, if you want go back, then you will be set up to do so. Too many people on this island have never actually lived off the island and experienced other opportunities, people, cultures, and better opportunities. Kauai is too isolated for young people to reach their full potential.

    I used to live in Anahola and Kapa'a, it does look very picturesque to the average joe - but they don't see the invisible predators that make it tough to live here. The mosquitoes, centipedes and alll the critters that come along with really wet environments will make sure things "look" nice and keep the weak off the island. So besides how costly it is to live here, if you're a mosquito magnet - forget about it. I still have trauma just thinking about it.

    Don't go to a park on Friday. Many of the locals live in tents in a park. They make them break down and remove their tents on Friday to clean the park, So then they build it right back later in the day. Naturally they are pi**ed on Friday. Every time I got the Haolie go home speech it was on a Friday near or at the park. I learned to avoid the park on Friday.

    Big pro that it isn’t commercialized. What people who agree with these high housing costs like it’s a worthiness issue. Keep in mind that the skilled labor is almost non existent because they can’t afford to get in (buy or rent) when cost of living is so high. Governments/city planners approving big investor building projects love to overlook the need for affordable workforce housing that isn’t a slum. Many natives and locals get forced out of these dream environments because of development by “corporate interests” and mainland retirees. I am dealing with this in my super desired area of Florida. Once the word got out it became a challenge for those already living here.

They hate america and dont want to be a state . Everything there has to be brought in so everything is crazy expensive and you cant get anything really. They smoke a lot of incredibly good pot, and cocaine is everywhere. I left my family and escaped. They also escaped but it took some time. Its like being in a tropical hell. Ok to visit, its the best island for that, but living there was beyond horrible. More Hawaiians live on the mainland than the islands now.

      @livingonkauai Год назад

      Great thoughts, I 100% agree. Unfortunately despite there being a new neighborhood being developed in Lihue, it is not large enough to ease the lack of supply. You also have much higher costs of materials and labor vs mainland due to being on an island in the pacific, typically construction costs of building a home are going to start at $700k at least. Small, older ‘starter’ homes are generally starting in the 700-900k range. Affordability is at a 40 year low across the nation so not a symptom exclusive to this market

    • @nylesgregory2120
      @nylesgregory2120 Год назад

      When all options have run out, Buyers start thinking along the crumb and scrap lines for getting into that market - ie. What about buying land and constructing anew? Or simply buying the Neighborhood eye-sore and bulldozing it down and rebuilding. How difficult is that process to get through City/County approvals? I'm serious - dead serious. $1.8 mil for the median last month? As an RE Agent, I'd be chewing my fingernails down to my 2nd knuckle praying I can be lucky enough to close on just one property a year to survive. Kauai has got to find a way to open up and relieve that low-supply pressure cooker. Nobody wants to Buy a Closet for $1.3 Million just to get in. That's not Paradise, that's just another reason to remain insulted and pissed just to get in and then get hit with the reality that very few qualified Labor Contractors can be had to do anything to help you in Home Reno. or new construction. I don't even want to ask construction completion estimates after breaking ground. Kauai's numbers are now "Exclusive Club Only," and will continue to watch on the sidelines - for years if need be as a case study. One day the workers will be forece off Island and then the roads and all infrastructure will begin to erode. That's when the Market will turn and People will start to come back. My money says you have a looming labor Exodus problem as well as an Econ 101 issue. My bet is Kauai home equities start to drop yoy the next three years. Only time will tell. @@livingonkauai
