Impressions of Auckland
Auckland is located on the coast in the north of New Zealand and is the country's largest city. Thanks to its developed economy, pleasant environment, high standard of living and stunning scenery, it has been ranked among the world's most livable cities for many consecutive years.
Auckland covers an area of 1,086 square kilometers with a population of about 1.5 million (which is already very large by New Zealand standards). It is New Zealand's economic center and most important industrial base. Both sides of its isthmus are good harbors, making sea transport convenient. It is the country's largest center for industry and trade and its transportation hub, the gathering and distribution center for livestock products in the northern region, and an important naval base.
Auckland has two main universities: the University of Auckland and Auckland University of Technology.
Tips for living in Auckland:
- Auckland has a large temperature difference between day and night, and UV radiation is strong year-round, so sunscreen is essential.
- As New Zealand's largest city, Auckland has a slightly faster pace of life than other cities in the country, but overall Aucklanders enjoy a very relaxed and laid-back lifestyle.
- Driving speeds in New Zealand are relatively fast, so never cross the road on a red light.
- Auckland's public transport system is not very well developed, so having your own vehicle is almost a necessity.
- New Zealand customs requirements are very strict — do not take any chances.
