| • | Ewa Gentry is a housing development and a census-designated place (CDP) located in the ‘Ewa District and the City & County of Honolulu on the leeward side of O‘ahu in Hawai‘i about twelve miles from Honolulu. As of the 2000 Census, the CDP had a total population of 4,939.
This area was previously known just as ‘Ewa (in Hawaiian, ‘ewa means "crooked"). In the late 1800s to early 1900s, ‘Ewa was one of the large population centers on the Island of O‘ahu, with industry focused around sugar cane production. The ‘Ewa Mill, in ‘Ewa was a major employer that set up residential villages. Sugar cane is no longer grown on the ‘Ewa Plain and ‘Ewa Gentry is now part of O‘ahu's new suburban growth center—an area of substantial sprawl spreading unbroken to the south to ‘Ewa Beach, north to Honouliuli, and west to Kalaeloa and Kapolei. This area is now referred to as O‘ahu's Second City, with a city center (downtown) located in Kapolei.
