Why it fits

Approvals activity points to active development pressure. School coverage gives the page a stronger family/livability signal. Transport coverage adds a practical access signal.

What to check

Higher deprivation should be treated as a local-context caution.

A territorial-authority estimate: the Auckland median sale price on a 20% deposit and 30-year loan, against the TA median household income implied by HUD's income-to-buy ratio, at RBNZ new-mortgage rates. A market-wide guide, not a Harania South-specific or borrower-specific figure.

Years of median household income to buy

Figures are for the Auckland territorial authority (as at 2026-03). New Zealand has no free suburb-level sale-price series, so these are TA-wide medians from HUD Local Housing Statistics (LINZ District Valuation Roll + Stats NZ) — a market backdrop for Harania South, not a Harania South-specific sale price.

Earthquake exposure is the distance from Harania South's centre to the nearest mapped active fault (GNS Science NZ Active Faults Database) — an area estimate, not a site-specific seismic assessment. NZ's full ground-shaking model (NSHM) is not available as a queryable map layer. Flood exposure is the share of an interior sample grid falling within Auckland Council's modelled flood plains (1% annual-exceedance-probability) — an estimate, not a property-level flood certificate. NZ publishes flood data per council; coverage here is Auckland only.

The resident employment base moved from 1,335 in 2018 to 1,383 in 2023 (+3.6%), which should be read as a census-to-census employment backdrop rather than a live jobs series. Te Waihanga's December 2025 Pipeline snapshot tracked over 12,000 NZ infrastructure initiatives, with more than 2,700 under construction and transport taking 52% of projected 2026 pipeline spend, which should be read as a broader national delivery backdrop rather than a suburb-specific project list.

Sources & freshness
Strong evidence

Harania South has enough direct local evidence for a first-pass decision.

NZ suburb pages combine Stats NZ, MBIE, MoE, GTFS, and pinned service coverage. The key difference is that some items are direct feeds, while others are fallback or snapshot layers.

RENT POSTURE
Rent is using MBIE bond data when present.

Treat current rent as a decision input, not as a guaranteed market quote.

HOSPITAL POSTURE
Hospital coverage comes from an official pinned snapshot.

This is a trusted coverage layer, but it is still a pinned snapshot rather than a live facility API.

TRANSPORT POSTURE
Transport is feed-based and depends on GTFS bundle coverage.

It is good for stop presence and local network context, but not a guarantee that every operator or schedule is equally current.
