I currently reside in the Mainland.
Due to circumstances, I may be moving to Hawaii in the near future.
Can I still get a job if I am a senior ( in my late 50s or 60s )?
I am currently working in a financial office, but I am not particular about the type of work I do,
and I am aware that the pay scale in Hawaii is not as high as in the mainland.
I would be happy to hear from anyone who has had similar experiences.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

I am of the same generation. Many of us moved to the mainland because our salaries were reduced considerably in Corona.
On the other hand, I think it is great that you can move to Hawaii. If you have good English skills and some disposable income or rental income,
I think you can live in Hawaii. The monorail still doesn't run and bus security is getting worse.
It is safer and more comfortable to have a car because it is an island. People who take driving for granted in Hawaii tend not to be
friends with people who don't have a car.
The major companies almost always cover medical insurance.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Mr. Senior Generation
I don't think 50s is senior at all. I think they are still active. I think they are the generation with the highest income in Japan.
I wonder if people who have finished their mortgages and can afford to live comfortably are called seniors ?
In Japan, people put a sign with a senior mark on their cars from the age of 75 ?.
We don't have that in the US, so I don't know what age you have to be to be a senior driver, but I guess it depends on the individual.
Buses sometimes get homeless people on them, or they were stolen on board, or they didn't have a bathroom on board.
I have never heard a good story. I don't want my relatives or friends who come to our house to ride the bus because it is unsanitary.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Some people who have moved from the mainland US are selling their mainland homes and buying in Hawaii, or paying rent with the money they sell.
Hawaii is expensive to buy and rent, so I recommend researching online.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

As you probably know, the U.S. federal government has established the EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission), which prohibits companies from discriminating on the basis of age, gender, religion, etc.
However, I personally feel that there are many cases where the employer has the right to choose the employee.However, employers have the right to choose their employees, and I personally feel that there are many cases where the document check does not pass.
I think there are many options for seniors in the restaurant, service, and retail industries.
A Hiring Manager I know told me that even if you meet the requirements, it is important to have experience and to be able to get along with and be accepted by younger colleagues at work even if you meet the requirements. I was called "Auntie "" by the young people.
I have heard of people who worked in the State Civil Service until they were 90 years old, so I believe that if you approach the job with confidence in your abilities, you will be able to communicate with others and overcome the age barrier.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

So many of you have moved to the mainland or Japan.
The reason you can live in Hawaii is probably if you have savings, income, disposable income, real estate, or rental income
.

I am not a senior, but in the Mc Cully area where I live, you can find a 1 bedroom apartment without security and parking for $ 1000. I think you can manage to live here without a car.

Thank you !
I didn't know about the Mc Cully area, it seems to be located north of Waikiki ・ Ala Moana.
I've lost most of my appetite for things with the Corona disaster, so I guess I just have to figure out how to make ends meet for housing ・ food and other necessary expenses...
Many of the apartments are older, but there is a possibility that rent and maintenance costs could go up
quickly with the installation of sprinklers and such... I guess so.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

If you are in the Ala Moana area,
there are affordable properties if you look.
First you need a house, a car and a job.
There is an organization called
J-Club that helps seniors here in Hawaii.
Some of the seniors around me have joined Hawaii kenjinkai or women's associations
and have been able to get information on properties, jobs, etc. from friends they have made there. Friends and acquaintances on the island are very important.
There is a lot to be gained from who you know on the island.
If you have any questions,
you can listen to Radio AM1210 KZOO 24 hours a day for information for seniors, Hawaii deals, music, etc.
Please refer to this page.
Information on this board is
available to people from all over the world.
Hawaii is a tourist destination and most tourists take the city bus more than once.

Mr. Senior Citizen
Because of my job, I do not recommend city buses for tourists.
I can't be responsible if something happens.
If you live in Hawaii, you know how much the security in Hawaii has deteriorated since Corona. You know how bad it has gotten since Corona.
Hundreds of Prisoners were released because of Corona, and they might be living in the next room in a cheap apartment.
You might be walking next door. If you live in the continental U.S., you know that money buys security.
It is better to know the current situation of Hawaii on youtube than to tell here.
I think you will find that this is not the time to say "I don't know but it's not my fault". You may not be aware of the damage caused by tourists using public restrooms that happened a few years ago.
You should be more careful than then.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

You have no idea how ignorant people are coming to Hawaii.
Japanese is spoken in some places, so very many people feel the same way as in Japan.
This is a valuable message for those who are considering moving to Hawaii.
I believe that knowledge helps you.

Thank you,
the most recent information on the area is really helpful.
I am also concerned about security in the mainland
due to the Corona disaster and hate crimes against Asians. I know I can never be too careful.
I wonder if I have to take out insurance on my own until I find a job.

Many people around me
are consulting with Ms. Tomoko Washington, an insurance consultant
who explains the basics of insurance
in detail on KZOO radio and
helps you find the right insurance for your needs.
The consultation is free, so it would be good to consult with her.
She is a very nice person.

Mr. River
There are no hate crimes against Asians in Hawaii.
Rather, whites and blacks are more racially discriminated.
Japanese and people of Japanese descent tend to be treated more favorably in Hawaii.
# As 21 said, what is the reason to move from the mainland to Hawaii ?
Hawaii is also the US, and after Corona, the gap between rich and poor is even more polarized.
After Corona, many remote workers, investors, and millionaires who moved from the mainland US bought a lot of properties in Hawaii, which caused
the property prices to skyrocket. If it's not because of house sales, you can't live in Hawaii renting for long.
Popular rental properties raise their prices every year.
The reason why many grandparents are homeless is because their pensions and rentals are equal or more expensive.
People who have paid off their mortgages by the time they receive their pensions tend to stay in Hawaii, but since nursing homes are 4-5 times more expensive than in Japan,
many people return to Japan after their retirement.
Those who do not are assisted by their daughters and sons.
Those who do not are assisted by their daughters or sons, or by the government as lowincome.
River, if you are alone and light, you may want to try living there for a year to experience it for yourself.
You can see why so many people move to the mainland or Japan.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Thank you for the insurance information !
and your honest opinion is very useful.
It is true that Hawaii has a lot of Asians and it is mentally relaxing.
However, I don't think I will be able to live an easy life,
so I may have to consider other options
if things get really tough financially...
( Returning to Japan completely is difficult for me right now due to various reasons. )
I would appreciate any further information you can give me.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)
