Pāpaʻaloa (also spelled Papaaloa) is an unincorporated community on the island of Hawaiʻi in Hawaiʻi County, Hawaii, United States. It lies along Hawaii Route 19 north of Hilo, the county seat of Hawaiʻi County.[1] Its elevation is 10 feet (3 m) Because the community has borne multiple names, the Board on Geographic Names officially designated it "Papaaloa" in 1914 and 1954 before assigning the current name in 2001.[2] Although it is unincorporated, it has a post office, with the ZIP code of 96780.[3]
