Location Information:
Honolulu is the capital of and the
most populous census-designated
place (CDP) in the U.S. state of
Hawaii. Although Honolulu refers to
the urban area on the southeastern
shore of the island of Oahu, the
city and the county are
consolidated, known as the City and
County of Honolulu, and the city and
county is designated as the entire
island. The City and County of
Honolulu is the only incorporated
city in Hawaii, as all other local
government entities are administered
at the county level. The population
of the CDP was 371,657 at the 2000
census, while the population of the
City and County was 909,863.
In the
Hawaiian language, Honolulu means
"sheltered bay" or "place of
shelter." Although hawaii today is
an amazing atraction for tourists
some of the local inhabitants still
feel somewhat of a grudge. The
"takeover" of the islands has put
the islanders mind to unrest since
the annexation.
