Moving to North Hawaiʻi as a Healthcare Professional: Where to Live

Are you moving to North Hawaiʻi for a healthcare position? Waimea, Waikoloa Village and North Kohala may appear relatively close on a map, but they offer very different climates, commutes, housing options and day-to-day experiences. I’m Missy Elliott, a Big Island REALTOR® with NextHome Paradise Realty and a former health-system pharmacist. I spent nearly 20 years in healthcare, including serving as a regional Director of Pharmacy. In this North Hawaiʻi relocation guide, I discuss: • Queen’s North Hawaiʻi Community Hospital and Kohala Hospital • Living in Waimea • The differences between the wetter and drier sides of Waimea • Waikoloa Village and its access considerations • Living in Hāwī, Kapaʻau and rural North Kohala • Temperature, rainfall, wind and elevation • Housing types and property-maintenance requirements • Internet, cellular service, roads and utilities • Planning around shift work and on-call responsibilities • How to compare the needs of everyone in your household REQUEST MY BIG ISLAND HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL RELOCATION GUIDE: https://missyelliotthawaii.com/health...
