I think that Hawaii's "good" outweighs the "not so good", especially the weather & amenities.
This is from a tourist's perspective but Hawaii is one of the few places within the US that seems to move to a different beat. *People (like everyone) actually seemed happy * and seemed to enjoy a good work/life balance *

Weather maybe? *I loved it (was there 2 weeks) but I wonder if the island thing would get old. *Met quite a few Cali natives there looking for a not so crowded retirement place.

Retirement location is such a highly personal situation with so many "right" answers that it's darn near impossible to make your choice by others' recommendations. *You have to make a list and visit the options to make your own decision. *Even then you may not have enough compelling reason to decamp from friends & family...
Very true Nords
