Hawaii had the 7th worst out-migration in the nation in 2016.

From "Census data shows that Hawaii has the highest median home value in the entire US, at $617,400. CNBC also ranked Hawaii as the state with the highest cost of living in 2018, with the cost of a half-gallon of milk coming in at $3.64."

Thanks, today I learned something about Hawaii. I assumed with the high COL it must be really desirable. But I guess tourists are pushing out locals?

Oh and there's a lot of housing regulation.

Nobody moves there unless they have a few million up spare or are just naive.
