I get that tourist dollars fuel business, but at the same time, locals seem to get the short end of the stick.

Yeah, I've heard that.
I think it'd be great to be a kid there, for sure. But I guess most places that are great to be as children are little less great to be when you're an adult and you have to worry about money and stuff.
I went through a pretty short-lived phase where I wanted to move there, actually. The phase ended as soon as I looked at house prices.
You know how that goes.
