Locals commonly use the name singularly when referring to the area surrounding the towns of Hāwī and Kapa‘au.

The original Kamehameha Statue stands in front of the community centre in Kapa‘au, and duplicates are found at Ali‘iolani Hale in Honolulu, and in the US Capitol in Washington, D.C.. (see Kamehameha Statue).

Kohala can also refer to the Kohala Mountains, the oldest of Hawai‘i Island's five volcanic mountains.
