Working in Hawaii
Public schools are the largest industry in Hawaii, followed by computer manufacturing, hotels and motels, health and medical insurance, and warehouse clubs and supercenters. Wondering what leading acute care employers are on the islands? Some of the hospitals and medical systems in Hawaii include:
So what would a commute look like if you were living on one of the islands? It takes just over 27 minutes for Hawaiians to get to work, which is marginally longer than the national average. The majority of residents (67%) drive solo to work, 14% carpool, and almost 7% take mass transit.
You may be wondering where to send your kids while you’re working. The Hawaii Department of Education offers a variety of Out-of-School Time (OST) programs for working families. But what about your pets? Don’t worry. Hawaii has lots of pet sitters who can take good care of your dogs and cats. They might even see more beach time than you do!
Living in Hawaii
If you love nature and the great outdoors, there are few states that can compete with Hawaii, which is the only U.S. state that is entirely composed of islands. The eight major islands by population are:
Oahu
Hawaii (aka The Big Island)
Maui
Kauai
Molokai
Lanai
Niihau
Kahoolawe
Whether you prefer to surf, hike, paddle board, kayak, mountain bike, swim, or just go for walks, Hawaii offers near-perfect backdrops year-round. Haleakalā National Park (Maui) and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (Big Island) are two of the many destinations that offer sights and terrain you simply can’t find anywhere else in the country.
To appreciate the culture and heritage of Hawaii and the Pacific Islands, explore the Bishop Museum, established in 1889 to honor Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop of the Kamehameha royal family. From oil paintings to model canoes to contemporary murals, the museum features millions of objects and is among the world’s most expansive natural history specimen collections.
When it comes time to eat, Hawaii offers much more than the poke bowls for which it has become renowned. If you live here, chances are Spam musubi, loco moco, lau lau, and shaved ice are the dishes you hold dear. Looking to dine out? You’ve got your choice from fine dining to food trucks and everything in between.
Because of the micro-environments found at varying elevations on the islands, the weather can be quite diverse. That said, there are really only two seasons in Hawaii: summer (May through October) and winter (November through April). In the summer, the daytime average reaches 85 degrees; in the winter, it’s around 78 degrees.
Thanks to the fantastic weather and culture, island life isn’t cheap. Hawaii’s cost of living index is around 193.3 (based on a national average index of 100). The average price of a home in Honolulu is nearly $800,000 and a one-bedroom rental is around $2,175 per month. To take some of the edge off, remember that an RN’s paycheck in the state averages six figures.
