Small towns on the Big Island are just about the same cost of living as Columbus. I can buy a 2 acre lot in a smallish town outside Hilo for around $25,000. Cars are more expensive there, but stuff like food that is grown there, is less.

 

Very true. There are other factors that lower the cost of living there. No heat needed, in most cases no AC is needed. You only need sumer clothes. Generally people are healthier there so less medical cost. People tend to drive less miles so vehicle and gas expenditures are less in many cases. The beach is free!

 

BTW.... I have a little something in the works right now that may put me back on the rock permanently within the next 6 months to a year.
