What we do not hold here

  • Population, housing, crime, income and other census-style figures: we hold none for New Zealand here, so nothing above is a rate per person.
  • Charities are placed at the centre of their postcode (some by town name where no postcode is given).
  • Charity income is not held here, so charities are ranked by board size.
  • Councils are matched by the nearest council centre; electorates and local boards are not matched to a postcode.
