“Over the last decade, New Zealand’s experienced some of its fastest population growth in its history, driven by international migration,” Dunstan said.

In the five years to December 2023, New Zealand’s population grew from 4.94 million to 5.31 million.
在截至 2023 年 12 月的五年内，新西兰人口从 494 万增长到 531 万。

It took more than two decades for the North Island population to increase from three to four million, by late 2023 and over the same time, the South Island population increased by almost 300,000 people.
到 2023 年底，北岛人口从 300 万增加到 400 万，花了二十多年时间，与此同时，南岛人口增加了近 300,000 人。

More than 4m people now live in the North Island – with over 2.5m residing in Northland, Auckland, Waikato, and Bay of Plenty.
现在有超过 400万的人居住在北岛 – 超过 250万的人居住在北部地区、奥克兰、怀卡托和丰盛湾。

Those regions account for 62 percent of the country’s growth since 2018 and along with Tasman and Canterbury, are the only regions that grew faster than the country as a whole.
自 2018 年以来，这些地区占该国增长的 62%，与塔斯曼海和坎特伯雷一起，是唯一比全国增长更快的地区。

邓肯说 ，坎特伯雷的塞尔温区（Selwyn District）的年增长率最高，为 5.1%， 其次是皇后镇湖区（Queenstown Lakes District），年增长率为 3.7%。

He said that growth was mainly driven by internal migration, with some of the fastest-growing parts of New Zealand on the outskirts of major cities.
他说，增长主要是由国内移民推动的，新西兰一些增长最快的地区位于主要城市的郊区。

In contrast, he said there were population losses in some areas, including the Chatham Islands which fell by an estimated 80 people to 610 residents in 2024.
相比之下，他说，一些地区出现了人口损失，包括查塔姆群岛，到 2024 年，估计减少了 80 人，降至 610 名居民。

In Wellington City, the population also decreased from 211,200 in 2018 to 209,900 in 2024.
