I currently reside in the Mainland.
Due to circumstances, I may be moving to Hawaii in the near future.
Can I still get a job if I am a senior （ in my late 50s or 60s ）?
I am currently working in a financial office, but I am not particular about the type of work I do,
and I am aware that the pay scale in Hawaii is not as high as in the mainland.
I would be happy to hear from anyone who has had similar experiences.

I haven't had the same experience, but I'm sure there are jobs if you don't pick the right one.
I was laid off in Corona, but where I worked
there were many people in their 50s and 60s, including me. The hourly wage was low, so
there were not many people who could make a living from that alone. Those who did
had other jobs.
I think you can find them here at Vivinavi or in the classifieds.
Hawaii's minimum wage went to $12 an hour a while back.
It is supposed to go up every two years, but there are a few places that are offering a little more now
because there are fewer people.
There are also agencies that provide temporary staffing and job placement services, so
I think you can find clerical work at those places.
If you have a chance, I suggest you try living there for a few months.
Then you will get a better idea of what it is like.

I am also a senior citizen.
It depends on where you are from in the mainland,
but if you are from California, the hourly wage is certainly lower.
The standard of living is high, but
Hawaii has a well established Japanese community,
it is easy to live here, and
it is possible to get by without a car in the future.
Welcome to Hawaii ！!

Thank you for the information ！
I am a little relieved to know that I can manage to find a place as long as I don't have to be picky.
Especially in the U.S., medical expenses are huge, so I'm hoping to find a place that will support medical insurance
even if only a little...
