Hello all! I’m planning to move to Honolulu some time next year, and wanted some advice on a few matters. I’m a Mexican-American and was born and raised in California after my parents moved here from Mexico. I’ve read almost all the posts in this forum and now have second thoughts on moving. I’ve visited Hawaii a couple times, and have always loved it. I already have a job lined up and maybe will have a place to stay temporarily before I can find a permanent residence. I’ve read the resent posts on Aaron and his family moving to Hawaii soon, and I got the impression that many people are against people moving to Hawaii from the mainland. Is this truly felt by the majority of “locals?” I am aware of the sovereignty issue and also the issue of over-population present in Hawaii. Are these the main reasons for this attitude? It’s hard to see that this would cause this type of “retribution” towards outsiders. In all my 32 years, I’ve never come across this when I or someone I now plan to move to a new area. I thought Hawaii was proud of its great diversity, but I’m unsure if I’d feel welcome. I’m sure most people including myself wouldn’t want to live someplace where they’d feel unwanted. Thanks so much for your time and for any comments.
