A person who inhabits the same island as another; a fellow islander or shared resident of an island.
From co- (together) + islander (from island + -er). Describes inhabitants who share island residence with others.
Island communities have tight bonds because coislanders literally can't escape each other—anthropologists find that island cultures develop unique traits faster than mainlands because everyone's in the same bubble.
