Why in California? Isn’t it in Hawaii?

The fact that Nani and Lilo were indigenous Hawaiians was important to the story and their setting, and I’d kinda rather just change the whole location to the continental US, which is the way of life im familiar with and don’t have to research, than try to accurately set it in Hawaii without disrespectfully attributing Hawaiian culture to white people who just, like, live there

Idk if that makes sense
