Hi everyone
I am another new arrival looking for a place to live in Auckland :roll
There are a few threads and posts on communities in the South, such as Manurewa. Sometimes it sounds to me that these areas have a few downsides. I am wondering what they might be and especially how they would affect my life if I would live there. Having a couple of break-ins into my flat and car a year? Partying neighbours all nite long? Untidy streets? Poor choice in the supermarkets? Gang wars? Etc.?
As I am going to study in Auckland, I look for a cheap flat to rent (around $ 250 per week), quiet location and easy commuting (by train) into the city.
Thanks for any ideas, suggestions, thoughts - especially from locals with up-to-date experience.
Cheers, bee
