I used to live in Wahiawa, it was pretty seedy out there.
It reminded me of some more rundown mainland cities in a way because of how paved over a lot of it was M**h was a problem for sure. I did see drug addicted hookers.
A lot of wannabe gangsters were around but they always respected me and my ways.
