Maunaloa at a Glance

Maunaloa is located on the western side of Molokai Island. In 2000 the total population was estimated to 230 citizens (91 houses, 52 families and 65 households). The population density is 1,374.6 people per square mile (522.4/kmē).

Although it’s small population, Maunaloa is a home of diverse ethnicity groups. Approximately 16% of the population is Caucasians, 19% Asians, 0.5% African American, and the majority approximately 35% of the entire population is Pacific Islanders. Hispanic and Latinos are about 5% and the rest is a mixture of two or more ethnicities.

The majority of the population worked in the Molokai Ranch (it used to be the local attraction of the area) which closed in March 2008. The ranch was the largest employer in the area and after its closure Maunaloa citizens were forced to look for jobs somewhere else, many of whose still can’t find one. Before Molokai Ranch closed the medium household income was $22,232. Males versus female income ratio was $23,333 (males) x $20,625 (females). Before the ranch closure a quarter of the population lived in poverty. As a consequence of losing their jobs at the ranch today the poverty in Maunaloa has significantly increased.

Maunaloa's zip code is 96770.
