Information

New Zealand cities are small (in population) by international standards. The plus side to New Zealand cities is the lack of pollution and crime that plagues big international cities. By comparison, New Zealand cities are safe and friendly places, yet the night life, restaurants, theatre, and art are surprisingly lively and varied. In addition to this, New Zealand cities are usually located within spectacular natural settings such as the coast, hills and mountains, even volcanoes.

The biggest city in New Zealand is Auckland, and the capital city of New Zealand is Wellington, the third biggest city. Both these cities are situated on the more populous North Island. The biggest city in the South Island and second biggest in New Zealand is Christchurch.

There are about 600 towns in New Zealand that service New Zealand's rural and tourism industries.
