Abstract

This report presents Waikato regional and territorial local authority results from a survey undertaken in parallel with the 2022 Quality of Life Survey (a collaboration between nine New Zealand councils including Hamilton). Results are presented at the overall Waikato regional and territorial local authority (TLA) levels as well as a regional breakdown by age group, gender and ethnic group. Trends for the period 2006 to 2022 are identified at the regional and TLA level for eight survey indicators reported as part of the Waikato Progress Indicators.

Around 1,500 Waikato region residents aged 18 years and over completed the survey between March and June 2022, including 546 people (36%) from Hamilton city.
