This report contains eight statistical tables: three summary tables for the state, counties, and islands; three detailed tables by islands and census tracts on selected demographic and housing characteristics; and two summary tables with census tract counts by islands. Data in the tables are from the Census 2010 Redistricting Data Summary File, which are based on questions asked from everyone completing a questionnaire during the 2010 Census. The summary file provided only census tract numbers. Corresponding census tract names in this report were provided to us by the county planning offices. This report also includes census tract boundary maps which were produced by the Hawaii State Office of Planning’s GIS Program. We would like to recognize the tremendous contribution of the following county planning offices in providing the 2010 Census tract names for the State of Hawaii: County of Hawaii Planning Department City and County of Honolulu Department of Planning and Permitting Kauai County Planning Department Maui County Department of Planning In addition to the above organizations, our Data Center received invaluable assistance with this report from the U.S. Census Bureau Los Angeles RCC Geography Department and the Hawaii State Office of Planning’s GIS Program.

No special land use tracts (9800 to 9899 tract number series) and water census tracts (9900 to 9989 tract number series) were included. See the “Notes and Subject Definitions” section of this report for an explanation of special land use and water tracts. Persons Per Household The number of persons per household for the State of Hawaii was 2.9 in 2010. The island with the highest number of persons per household was Niihau with 6.3 persons and the islands with the least number of persons per household were Lanai and Hawaii with 2.7 persons each. Persons per Rank Island household 1 Niihau 6.3 2 Oahu 3.0 3 Molokai 2.8 4 Kauai 2.8 5 Maui 2.8 6 Lanai 2.7 7 Hawaii 2.7 State Average 2.9 The top area by far with the highest number of persons per household was tract 412 (Ni’ihau- Kaula) with 6.3 persons per household. This was the only area in the top 6 listing which was not on Oahu. The rest of the areas included tract 64.01 (Gulick Avenue-Likelike); tract 89.12 (August Ahrens School); tract 9400.02 (Nanakuli); tract 61 (Kalihi Waena); and tract 83.02 (Campbell High School). 2010 census Persons Rank tract number Island Census tract name per household 1 412 Niihau Ni'ihau-Kaula 6.3 2 64.01 Oahu Gulick Avenue-Likelike 5.1 3 89.12 Oahu August Ahrens School 5.0 4 9400.02 Oahu Nanakuli 5.0 5 61 Oahu Kalihi Waena 4.9 6 83.02 Oahu Campbell High School 4.9 The census tract with the least number of persons per household was tract 39 (Civic Center) with 1.2 persons per household. The other 3 tracts on the bottom were as follows: 319 (Kalawao); 19.01 (Waikiki Beach); and 18.01 (Koa Avenue). Among these 4 areas in our state, tract 319 was the only census tract not on the island of Oahu. It is important to note, however, that most of these areas had little population when compared to the population residing in other census tracts. 3 For example, Civic Center had a total of 270 people living in housing units while Kalawao had only 87 people living in housing units. 2010 census Persons Rank tract number Island Census tract name per household 1 39 Oahu Civic Center 1.2 2 319 Molokai Kalawao 1.3 3 19.01 Oahu Waikiki Beach 1.5 4 18.01 Oahu Koa Avenue 1.6 Density The number of persons per square mile (density) for the State of Hawaii was 211.8 in 2010. The Island of Oahu was significantly more dense than any of the other islands with 1,594.9 persons per square mile. The island with the least number of persons per square mile was Niihau with 2.5. Density, per square Rank Island mile 1 Oahu 1,594.9 2 Maui 187.1 3 Kauai 121.2 4 Hawaii 45.9 5 Molokai 28.2 6 Lanai 22.2 7 Niihau 2.5 State Average 211.8 The tract with the highest density was 19.04 (Hobron Lane) with 87,816 persons per square mile. The other top 4 tracts in regard to density included census tract 18.03 (Tusitala Street) with a density of 81,167; census tract 68.09 (Ala Ilima Makai) with a density of 78,744; census tract 19.03 (Ena Road) with a density of 77,629; and census tract 68.08 (Ala Ilima Mauka) with a density of 69,290. Three of these top areas were in Waikiki and the other two were in the Salt Lake area. All of these top areas were on the island of Oahu. 4 Density, per 2010 census square Rank tract number Island Census tract name mile 1 19.04 Oahu Hobron Lane 87,816.0 2 18.03 Oahu Tusitala Street 81,167.4 3 68.09 Oahu Ala Ilima Makai 78,743.9 4 19.03 Oahu Ena Road 77,629.3 5 68.08 Oahu Ala Ilima Mauka 69,289.6 The tract with the lowest density was 412 (Ni’ihau-Kaula) with 2.5 persons per square mile. Please note that the inclusion of the land area from the unpopulated isle of Kaula contributes to this census tract’s low density figure. The next 4 tracts on the lowest density list included census tract 220 (Pa‘auhau-Pa‘auilo); census tract 221.02 (North Hilo); census tract 319 (Kalawao); and census tract 212.02 (Ka’u). All 5 areas with the lowest density were on the neighbor islands and 3 of the 5 areas were on the Big Island.

This may be due to many people living alone in apartment and condominiums. 5 CENSUS TRACT NUMBERING CHANGES BETWEEN 2000 AND 2010 There were several significant changes in the numbering of census tracts for Hawaii between 2000 and 2010. First, our state now has several new types of census tracts which were not found in 2000. Each type has its own census tract number range. There are Hawaiian Home Land tracts (9400-9499 range); special land use tracts (9800-9899 range) and water tracts (9900 to 9989 range). It should be noted that Hawaiian Home Land tracts are part of the census tract geographic level and are separate from the geographic level called the American Indian Area/Alaska Native Area/Hawaiian Home Lands areas.
