Hawaii incomes and housing rise as population shrinks and ages
Original: Data Book: Hawaii incomes, housing prices up while population shrinks, grows older
New census-style data for Hawaii shows a paradox: median incomes and housing prices are climbing, but the state's population is shrinking and getting older. The figures point to rising costs of living alongside an exodus of residents, particularly working-age families, leaving an aging population behind.
Why now: The latest demographic and economic data highlights Hawaii's affordability crisis and outmigration trend, a major local concern.
