I currently commute into london so am happy to travel a bit to get to Wiri.
Can anyone recommend a good area to live. We are looking for somewhere for a family of 4. We have two kids aged 5 and 20 months. Would like to live in the country or near a beach. aslo would like some land with the property.

I don' t know this area too well as I lived on the shore, and it was 3 years since I left.

[QUOTE]Originally posted by garyb Yes - The less salubrious areas would be some parts of Ranui, Parts of Oratia ( although some of it is lovely) New Lynn and Avondale - parts of Henderson are quite built up , new housing estates etc. but it's still not bad. The best thing is to have a look for yourself if you get the chance as suburbs everywhere have good and bad areas
