Living cost in the hawaiian island?
89264
Very expensive. Almost everything is shipped in, then sent by barge to the other islands, then distributed by truck. Last time I was there (May 2005) Gasoline was $3.25/gal, milk was $4/gallon, cereal was $5 a box, etc.

Cost of living, definitely.  Inflation.  Interest rates.  Unemployment rates.

I have lived in downtown San Francisco for 2 years. I paid around $825 a month which I shared. A studio can run anywhere from $600 to $900+. Just stay out of the Tenderloin area, not safe. Good luck! Great city!

I went there on my honeymoon... In Kauai We stayed at the Hyatt & it was the most beautiful place I have ever stayed.. You have to check out the Na'pali coast... I went by boat but heard that the helicopter tour is the best way to see it...if you have extra cash to spend opt for the helicopter!   If you are going to the big Island, Valcano Nat'l. Park is crazy.  You can actually see lava pouring into the ocean... it is sick!

Hi. I live in Bangalore, so I thought I'd be well qualified to answer your question. For the average Bangalorean (middle class), home rents, utility bills and other monthly recurring costs will total up to approximately Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 25,000. This kind of spending will not give you too much of a luxurious lifestyle, but will help you live a very OK life.\n\nIf you are willing to spend even more for a better quality of life (chef, chauffeur, etc), then your monthly expenses can easily go northwards of Rs. 100,000/-.

The average pay salary isn't much different in California. The places you're interested in living are expensive places that would require at least a job that pays 15 dollars an hour. Most apartments cost $1,200 a month. I live in Orange County and find it difficult living on my own in a one-bedroom at 14 dollars an hour.\n\nUnless you're learning a skill while you're saving up you probably shouldn't put too much weigh into the idea of relocating to some of the most expensive places in California.

If you mean "South Beach", figure on spending a fortune to live.  On the other hand, if you're willing to live out in the boondocks, you can find places down there that are very cheap to live (and equally boring).  I'd say you could get by in Arcadia or Englewood on $12000 per year.  South Beach might require 3 times that.

Grew up in Hawaii.  Very high cost of living, service/tourist economy with relatively low wages, affordable housing is very limited.  If you have a high-paying profession and secure a job before going there, and you are a maniac for out of doors activity, particularly ocean sports, don't mind a "small town" feel in terms of amount of cultural options/mindset/etc., living in a relatively small place (you can drive around Oahu in a few hours without traffic for example) then Hawaii is heaven.  Its a nice place to live if you have money to travel elsewhere when you want to.  If you're a true city person, fuggedaboudit.

The question depends on location.  Localized pay is the standard now for this skill.  I work as a software engineer in San Angelo, Texas, and garner 51k.  This is a very low cost place to live and work.  If I were to transfer these skills to a metro area like San Antonio, I have been offered 90k to live and work there.  I have also received offers for 120k for Hawaii, and 90-110 for Washington D.C.  \n\nI am semi-retired and don't need a big move or change in my life, and I am very happy with the freedom I have here to be creative and productive in ways that make me happy.  Money is important, but job satisfaction and the people you work for will dictate the balance you desire in a salary.\n\nBut I would give you a word of caution.  Many companies are trying to get software engineers ala carte.  They will hire based on limited time periods (contracts of 6 months, or 1-5 years) to apply their skills against a specific project until that project is no longer being worked.  Make sure you attempt to hire on as a permanent employee, and not a contract employee.\n\nFinally, you skills will determine how much you catch the eye of an employer.  Make sure your skills are what the industry is looking for in the location that you are looking.
