This dataset was first added to Stats NZ Geographic Data Service on 23 Jun 2022.
This dataset is the provisional 2023 dataset for Constituency. The final 2023 layer is scheduled to be published on 8 December 2022 as part of the annual boundary release.
The intention of providing this provisional dataset is to make available the boundaries that will be used for the local body elections being held in October 2022.
This dataset is the provisional set of regional council constituency boundaries for 2023 as defined by the regional councils and Local Government Commission but maintained by Stats NZ (the custodian). This version contains 58 constituencies (excluding Area Outside Regional Council Constituency).
Constituencies are established under the Local Electoral Act 2001 and result from the division of a region for electoral purposes.
If a regional council decides to have a Māori constituency, the constituencies within the council are known as _general_constituencies and Māori constituencies.
Constituencies are divisions of regional council areas. They are defined at meshblock level, and do not coincide with the statistical area 1 (SA1) geography or the statistical area 2 (SA2) geography. They are created, based on population, to be the voting areas within councils. Constituencies are required to reflect communities of interest. Their boundaries, so far as is practicable, coincide with those of territorial authorities or wards. The boundaries of constituencies may be reviewed before each three-yearly local government election. Regional councils must review their representation arrangements at least once every six years. The provisions for such reviews are in the Local Government Act 2002.
Names are provided with and without tohutō/macrons. The name field without macrons is suffixed ‘ascii’.

This dataset contains counts of people of Maori descent by the official language indicator from the 2013 Census. The data is presented at meshblock level and uses the 2013 Census boundaries. The variables provided are as follows:
This dataset allows for the comparison across areas to determine the strength or otherwise of te reo Maori language for people of Maori descent.
Notes:
Confidentiality rules have been applied to all cells in this table, including randomly rounding to base 3.
Unrounded counts of less than 6 have been confidentialised.
Individual figures may not add up to totals, and values for the same data may vary in different tables.

District health board (DHB) boundaries are defined by the Ministry of Health and are defined at meshblock level using the Stats NZ meshblock geography. They commenced on 1 January 2001 but ceased to exist on 30 June 2022.
From 1 July 2022, Te Whatu Ora/Health New Zealand (www.tewhatuora.govt.nz/) has taken over responsibility for planning and commissioning hospital, primary and community health services.
District Health Boards are responsible for providing or buying Government funded health care services for the population of a specific geographical area. District Health Boards have existed since 1 January 2001. The amalgamation of Otago and Southland into the Southern District Health Board in 2010 reduced the number of District Health Boards from 21 to 20 (excluding 'Area outside District Health Board')
District Health Boards are defined at meshblock level.
Changes to District Health Boards:
Otago and Southland amalgamated to form the Southern District Health Board in 2010.
Chatham Islands Territory meshblocks transferred from Hawke's Bay District Health Board to Canterbury District Health Board in 2015.

This dataset was first added to Stats NZ Geographic Data Service on 21 Sep 2020.
This dataset contains information on:
· Estimated resident population (ERP) at 30 June 1996, 2001, 2006, 2013, and 2018 for total population
· ERP at 30 June 2018 by ethnic groups (European or Other (including New Zealander), Māori, Pacific, Asian, and Middle Eastern/Latin American/African) – estimates and percentage
· Sex ratio – number of males per 100 females
· ERP at 30 June 2018 by broad age groups and median age
· Geographies available are regional council areas, territorial authority and Auckland local board areas, Statistical Area 2, and urban rural.
Note: The geography corresponds to 2020 boundaries
Note: -999 indicates data are not available.
About the estimated resident population
The estimated resident population at 30 June in the census year is based on the census usually resident population count, with updates for:
· net census undercount (as measured by a post-enumeration survey)
· residents temporarily overseas on census night
· births, deaths and net migration between census night and 30 June
· reconciliation with demographic estimates at the youngest ages.
The estimated resident population is not directly comparable with the census usually resident population count because of these adjustments.
For more detailed information about the methods used to calculate each base population, see DataInfo+ Demographic estimates.
Ethnic groups
It is important to note that these ethnic groups are not mutually exclusive because people can and do identify with more than one ethnicity. People who identify with more than one ethnicity have been included in each ethnic group.
The 'Māori', 'Pacific', 'Asian' and 'Middle Eastern/Latin American/African' ethnic groups are defined in level 1 of the Ethnicity New Zealand Standard Classification 2005. The estimates for the 'European or Other (including New Zealander)' group include people who belong to the 'European' or 'Other ethnicity' groups defined in level 1 of the standard classification. If a person belongs to both the 'European' and 'Other ethnicity' groups they have only been counted once. Almost all people in the 'Other ethnicity' group belong to the 'New Zealander' sub-group.
Time series
This time series is irregular. Because the 2011 Census was cancelled after the Canterbury earthquake on 22 February 2011, the gap between the 2006-base and 2013-base estimated resident population is seven years. The change in data between 2006 and 2013 may be greater than in the usual five-year gap between censuses. Be careful when comparing trends.
Rounding
Individual figures may not sum to stated totals due to rounding.

This dataset was first added to Stats NZ Geographic Data Service on 10 Feb 2021.
The functional urban area (FUA) classification identifies small urban areas and rural areas that are integrated with larger urban areas to create FUAs.
Workplace address and usual residence address data from the 2018 Census of Population and Dwellings were used to identify satellite urban areas (1,000–4,999 residents), and rural statistical area 1s (SA1s) from which at least 40 percent of workers commuted to urban areas with more than 5,000 residents.
An FUA includes Urban rural (UR) 2018 urban areas, rural settlements and rural SA1s where there is: an urban core, one or more secondary urban cores, one or more satellite urban areas, and rural hinterland (rural settlements or rural SA1s).
The FUA indicator (IFUA) classifies UR2018 urban areas and rural SA1s according to their character within their FUA, e.g. urban core, satellite urban area.
The 53 FUAs are classified by population size. The urban core’s population rather than the entire FUA’s population is used to maintain consistency between the descriptions of UR2018 urban area and FUA type (TFUA).
FUAs that have more than 100,000 residents living in their urban core are known as metropolitan areas, while smaller FUAs are divided into large (core population 30,000–99,999), medium (core population 10,000–29,999), and small regional centres (core population 5,000–9,999).
The Greymouth urban area population is less than 10,000 but is classified as a medium regional centre, consistent with its treatment as a medium urban area in the Urban accessibility (UA) 2018 classification.
Names are provided with and without tohutō/macrons. The name field without macrons is suffixed ‘ascii’.

Digital boundary data became freely available on 1 July 2007.
