​​​​​​​The island of Hawai’i is also called “The Big Island” because it has the largest land mass of all the islands in the archipelago. The island has two distinct sides; Kona and Hilo. Kona is known for its resorts, sunny beaches and arid climate. Hilo is known for is heavy resident base, agriculture, heavy rainfall and closer access to Volcano national park. Despite a long commute, many residents live in Hilo and commute to Kona for work in the visitor industry.

Kona is a mix of visitors and residents with Ali’i Drive as the primary tourist street in the market.
