What to Know Before You Move
- Seasonal Weather – Expect hot, humid summers, crisp falls, cold and snowy winters, and rainy springs. Winter coats, boots, and heating bills will become part of daily life.
- Housing Styles – From high-rise living in Jersey City and Hoboken to single-family homes in Edison, Princeton, or Cherry Hill, housing styles vary widely. Many apartment and condo buildings require move permits and elevator reservations—we’ll help coordinate.
- Commuting – Many New Jersey residents commute into New York or Philadelphia. Transit options include NJ Transit trains, PATH, ferries, and buses, though suburban living often requires a car.
- Cost of Living – Housing can be more affordable than Hawaii in some areas, though property taxes in New Jersey are among the highest in the U.S. Utilities (especially heating) will also be higher than island life.
What to Know Before You Move
- Lifestyle Shift – Hawaii offers a slower pace, tighter-knit communities, and traditions rooted in aloha—a big contrast from New Jersey’s fast-paced metro areas.
- Downsizing – Many New Jersey homes are larger than typical Hawaii condos or single-family houses. Downsizing before moving saves on shipping and eases the transition.
- Car Shipping – If you rely on your vehicle in New Jersey, you may want to ship it. Alternatively, Hawaii’s used car market offers plenty of options.
- Cost Changes – Groceries, gas, and utilities run higher in Hawaii, but you’ll no longer face snow removal, heating bills, or high tolls.
- Outdoor Lifestyle – Replace long commutes and four seasons with year-round access to surfing, hiking, paddling, and island exploration.
