Apartments for Rent in Waipahu, HI

Nestled on the southern coast of Oahu a few miles north of Pearl Harbor, Waipahu is an ancient city whose name translates into bursting water after the freshwater streams that flow through the city. Once the capital city of the island, Native Hawai'ian royalty would come here to enjoy the gorgeous fresh water. Today, residents can enjoy this ancient city by stepping into nature; the Waikele Stream flows through the Pouhala Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, attracting wildlife and providing a breathtaking setting. Other parks like Waipahu District Park offer facilities like athletic fields, green space, and playgrounds. Additional amenities within the city include the commercial district centered around Farrington Highway; malls, plazas, and an array of restaurants are located here. Waipahu's central location ensures that residents are near some of the island's greatest features like the Waikele Premium Outlets, the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport, and the Pearlridge Center. The rest of Waipahu is made up of residential neighborhoods. Most of the rental options are concentrated on the southern side of town, closest to the water, with the cost of living reflecting the area's desirability.
