Mosston
How many recently arrived?
Derived from the Census question, "When did you first arrive to live in New Zealand?"
Relates only to those people who live in New Zealand but were not born in New Zealand.
The Year of Arrival data indicates the year (or period) when the overseas born population arrived in New Zealand. Immigration statistics show the degree to which areas are "ports" for new overseas migrants and reveals the role of the area in housing the overseas-born.
Recent arrival numbers in an area are often determined by:
- housing affordability;
- employment opportunities; and
- pre-existing communities located in the area.
Mosston's Year of Arrival data is best used in conjunction with Country of Birth data, Religion and Languages Spoken as a means of informing decision-makers, planners and service providers about the ethnic composition and cultural diversity of an area and the socio-economic status of migrants.
