Mililani is located in the city and county of Honolulu on the island Oahu.  The land was former plantation fields, but has now been remodeled by a subsidiary of Castle and Cooke to offer affordable housing.  In 1986 Mililani was named the “All-American City”, and it is the third wealthiest zip code in all of Hawaii.  In 2005 Mililani was named one of the best places to live in the United States. 

Living in Mililani

Mililani is only 35 years old and is Oahu’s first planned community.  It is now home to 40 to 45 thousand people, which is close to the original goal of 50 thousand.  It is located between the two volcanic mountains that occupy the island.  People who live here can take the H-2 interstate and get directly to Honolulu in one direction and Wahiawa in the other.

Mililani sits at an elevation of 720 feet above sea level and has a closer proximity to the mountainside.  This means it is greener and cooler than the rest of Oahu. 

This area consists of two parts, Mililani Town and Mililani Mauka.  Mililani Town is the older part of Mililani and Mililani Mauka was built on the other side of the H-2 interstate after it was built. 

Most of the homes in Mililani are sold to people already living in the area and that want to upgrade.  Around 78 percent of all of the homes are occupied.  This town is where much of Hawaii flocks to because of all it has to offer.  Residents are offered a variety of options such as recreational facilities, swimming pools, tennis courts, and public parks.

Everything in this town was planned down to the letter including the number of trees, which equals seven per home.  There are also no driveways and no parking on the thoroughfares to make the neighborhood safer.

Activities in Mililani

Mililani was not built to be a community center, but there are the commercial activities that people, who live there, can enjoy.  The Fun Factory is an amusement park for families to come and enjoy and to let the kids run free.  The Mililani Golf Club is home to Oahu’s most scenic courses and is where the pros come to play.  Gamers have their very own Play N Trade in Mililani, which offers a variety of video games as well as tournaments.  For those that want to enter a more commercial center, Honolulu is a short distance away and provides a variety of restaurants and shopping centers.
