Pahoa Plan Survey results, "What I love about Pahoa". November 12, 2012 by Vicki Stump, transportation committee Old town feel: • Old town feel, wish the buildings were maintained better. • It's rustic; it's quiet for the most part, when the roads aren't being painted. • It's small, quaint, and unique & hasn't changed a lot like the other islands. • A few old style buildings, lend a historic charm to the area. • It's nice to see police who are at ease enough to wave at citizens. I enjoy the cultural events and of course the annual Christmas parade! • Sense of community feels strong; I like the quaint appearance of much of the area. • The old town is typical of the old Hawaii - people know you and you know them. • Rustic. Old town feel. • Love the small town feel, and that there is no fast food. Keep Pahoa small, but make it nicer. • Love small town, people knowing each other. • I like the charm of the old buildings, although they are falling down and need restoration. I like that Pahoa is a one street town and doesn't have too many shops. • I love that regardless the economic situation Pahoa town is still thriving. As much as I love the small town -feel there is definitely some room for change and development. • The small agricultural family owned & operated business. • Unique Hawaiian village. The small town atmosphere and attitude of the people. Small, funky, colorful and diverse. Old school. • Small town, great street of buildings. • I love the laid back slower pace, no traffic lights, not commercialized and over populated and run like most of America and the so- called civilized world.
