I've contemplated moving to Hawaii before.
Some of the downsides I've heard from people:
  • It's expensive to live
  • It's expensive to travel
  • People won't visit you as often (and if they do you're only one part of their larger vacation)
  • You might eventually get bored, depending on your personality and desire to experience new things of course
But the upsides are certainly attractive

Think very carefully before you commit. Islands can get very small. Especially Hawaii.
It's a great place for a while, but there's a lot of woke leftism in Hawaii. Also, the discrimination against "haoles" is real. Someone I know experienced a lot of it in elementary school.
