Hi Guys
An article in this mornings Sunday Times raises some intersting points.
But further down in the article John Banks Mayor of Auckland has this to say:
Well I wonder who is correct or are things being misreported as regards to Auckland's population growth or decline.

An article in this mornings Sunday Times raises some intersting points.
The BRC Research poll for the Sunday Star-Times, reveals a staggering 82% answeredO'no' when asked if Auckland was the place they would prefer to live and work. Even Aucklanders appear fed up living in what is supposed to the country's most irresistible city.
A sub-sample of the national poll found 42% of Aucklanders say they too would rather live elsewhere.
The findings help explain a dramatic reversal in trends revealed in the last census, which found for the first time in decades Auckland was losing more people to other parts of New Zealand than it was gaining from the rest of the country.

Banks rejected any suggestion that Auckland's growth was turning New Zealanders off, dismissing the BRC Research poll as "shonky".
"Auckland grows by the size of Dunedin every three years. Fifty new families are now moving into Auckland every week and 21 new houses are completed every day. Some people need to move to Auckland for job opportunity. I needed to move to Auckland for job opportunity. There was no one in Whangarei who would have employed me when I left parliament."
