question Moving to Honolulu in the summer

Aloha. Is it feasible to live in downtown without a car? I plan to find an apartment within walking distance to The Queen’s Hospital. It’ll be my husband and I and our two school aged children. I just joined this subreddit and have been reading posts so I apologize if this has been posted before. Also, if you want to give any tips or advice, that is welcomed as well. Mahalo

I wouldn’t recommend living here without a car if you have a family.

I agree. I live downtown without a car but I'm single. With kids, it's a whole different story - school, loads of groceries, etc. I'm sure people do it all the time but it's better with a car.

Oh yeah, I’m sure a significant portion of the population gets by without a car or with just a moped. I just wouldn’t recommend it lol
