Best Cities on the Big Island to avoid Vog?

Question

Hi there, thanks for reading my Q. My husband, infant daughter and grandmother have the opportunity to move to the big island for a job. His job involves traveling all over the island, so we have some freedom in choosing where we live. The only thing holding us up is the Vog issue. I've gotten a lot of info from the Hawaii DOH website, but I still don't understand how severe of an issue it is. I realize that right now it's worse because of the volcanic activity. Is there an area of the island that consistantly has bad air quality? Is there an area that is rarely affected by Vog? From your perspective, is it enough of an issue that you would turn the job down? Does it compare to any mainland cities' smog problems?

Answer 2

Talk to someone  for info about Hawaii.  I don't think the populated areas has any issues with Vog.  I wouldn't turn the job down.  Living in Hawaii is so nice as my friends told me.
