Abstract: Quality of Life Survey series
Statement: The Quality of Life Project was initiated in 1999 in response to growing pressures on urban communities and the effects of these on community wellbeing. It was initially a collaboration between councils represented in Local Government New Zealand’s (LGNZ’s) Local Government Metro Sector forum. The first Quality of Life Survey was undertaken in 2003, repeated in 2004 and has since been undertaken every two years with a varying number of participating councils. Hamilton city has participated in every survey round except 2012 and 2014.The Waikato region has previously collected data for the areas outside of Hamilton city in parallel with the 2006 and 2016 surveys.

The Quality of Life Survey measures the perceptions of New Zealanders on:
• Overall quality of life
• Environment (built and natural)
• Housing
• Public Transport
• Health and wellbeing
• Crime and safety
• Community, culture and social networks
• Economic wellbeing
• Council decision-making processes

The Quality of Life survey results will help inform regional and local government policy and support monitoring towards strategic social, cultural, and economic goals.

Quality of Life Survey 2018

Abstract: The 2018 Quality of Life survey results give comprehensive up-to-date information on public perceptions, attitudes and behaviours in the Waikato region.
Statement: The 2018 Quality of Life Survey was a collaboration between nine councils (eight cities and one region) and a parallel Waikato survey as follows:
1. Auckland Council
2. Hamilton City Council
3. Tauranga City Council
4. Hutt City Council
5. Porirua City Council
6. Wellington City Council
7. Christchurch City Council
8. Dunedin City Council
9. Greater Wellington Regional Council
10. Waikato region (other than Hamilton City)

The survey sought a minimum of 50 responses for each territorial local authority (TLA) in the Waikato region. For Rotorua, only respondents living in the part of the district within the region were surveyed. For each of Waitomo and Taupo, where only a few people live in areas outside the Waikato regional boundary, the survey sampled from the whole district.

The 2018 Quality of Life survey results give comprehensive up-to-date information on public perceptions, attitudes and behaviours in the Waikato region and other parts of New Zealand. These results will help inform regional and local government policy and support monitoring towards strategic social, cultural and economic goals.
The latest Waikato regional survey results will be incorporated into the Waikato Progress Indicators (WPI) regional wellbeing monitoring update for selected indicators.
