New Zealand’s Population
![Page 2: New Zealand’s Population. Distribution of the population Not distributed evenly Some places have more people than others Population density – is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649dc65503460f94aba188/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Distribution of the population Not distributed evenly Some places have more people than others Population density – is a way of describing how
close people live to one another. In some parts of NZ where the population density is
as much as 150 people per square km the population is described as dense.
In rough hill country where there is a population density of 1 person per square km the population is described as being sparse.

Population density maps of NZ
TASK: On an outline map of NZ locate and
name five places with high population densities, medium densities and low densities.
Explain how the circles on the map are able to show population size of an area.

Using the map of NZ’s population density summarise the information from the map(s) in a table with three columns as shown below.
Areas of dense population
Areas of sparse population
Main cities

Mapping ..On a map of NZ locate and name…. Three cities in the South Island with large
populations Two areas of the North Island that have sparse
populations Two areas of the South Island that have sparse
populations Four cities in the North Island with large
populations Two regions of NZ with a high percentage of Maori
population

Natural reasons determining where population is located. Landform – relief Distance from the sea Soil fertility Climate – temperature and rainfall

Cultural reasons determining where population is located. Historical reasons Ancestral / spiritual ties Proximity to other towns Employment opportunities

Immigrants to NZ Pacific Islands South Africa China / Asia
People immigrating to NZ from these countries tend to live in Auckland and also live in particular suburbs of the city. Why might this be so?
![Page 13: New Zealand’s Population. Distribution of the population Not distributed evenly Some places have more people than others Population density – is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649dc65503460f94aba188/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Polynesians Tend to live in South Auckland but this has
not always been the case. Grey Lynn, Ponsonby and Freeman’s Bay
were common areas for Polynesians to live in until the early 1980s. Mainly renters.
After this time – gentrification – housing costs increased so many moved to South Auckland.

South Africans Recent immigrants to Auckland often move to
areas around Rangitoto College, Selwyn College and Howick areas.
Why? – near families and friends for support, schools reputations, older established homes

Asian migration Many Asians came to live in parts of
Auckland, in the early 1990s such as Howick because of the reputation of the school - Macleans College.
Also their friends or family were living there. Housing supply was growing.

So what could you be asked? Name the city with a
port at A. Name the city with a
university at B. Circle the correct
population density for the area shaded.
Less than 1 pp km2, 1-5 pp km2, more than 6 pp km2
