The cost to live in Lahaina on the Hawaiian island of Maui keeps rising thanks to a chronic housing shortage and an influx of second-home buyers and wealthy transplants snatching up properties.

    I was telling my partner that this morning. What happens after this kind of event is a bunch of people with trauma are gunna sell for cheap just to get away from the reminders. This place is going to turn into a condo resort.

      Sad but true. My partner and I had just started planning another trip there for October. Was such an awesome little place. I feel absolutely horrible for everyone there.
