Oahu sucks. Worked there countless times and hope never to go back


Traffic is awful and they think Mainlanders drive too fast. Restaurant selection is terrible but food trucks are good. Don't expect to get anything done on Monday morning or Friday afternoon, literally. Homeless situation is bad. Two streets off of Waikiki is the 'hood. Prices are thru the roof on everyday stuff. It may be fun for the first month but there's nothing to do except drive around the island, hike Diamond Head, and go to the North Shore and watch waves. It's 85/70 every day, sundown at 6pm every day, rains every day, and worse in rainy season. Housing prices are astronomical and shacks sit next door to beautiful homes. They have severe inferiority complex to the mainland. I can't speak to any other island than Oahu, but don't move there.
