South Auckland is an imprecisely defined area of Auckland, New Zealand, often stereotyped as a socio-economically disadvantaged, and sometimes rough, urban area[1] with a relatively large Polynesian and Māori population. The name South Auckland is not an official place name but is in common use[2] by New Zealanders. It is also used in the names of some organisations and companies.
Since the 1970s the term "South Auckland" has had negative connotations with outsiders, being associated with deprivation, crime and violence.[1] When street crime occurs in the area, the mass media tend to use the generic "South Auckland" phrase, with its vague and unfortunate stereotypes, rather than the correct name of a suburb or territorial authority.[1] Previous Manukau City mayor Barry Curtis tried to discourage use of the name because of its negative connotations. Many South Auckland youth, however, use the name with pride.
Flat Bush is the country’s largest and most comprehensively planned new town, taking shape on 1700ha in south east Auckland. By 2025 it is expected that the area will be home to at least 36,000 people.
