Focus on the regions
This month we highlight the move of our Quarterly Economic Reports to an interactive web-based format, along similar lines to our Annual Online Profiles. We've also publicly released our Community Profiles for all districts and regions around New Zealand, giving users the opportunity to access and visualise a wide range of data from the 2013 Census.
Most of our articles this month have a regional focus as well. We look at how tourism activity is going across the country, and how the growth in visitor numbers is boosting the sector around most of New Zealand - a welcome change following a period where most of the growth has been concentrated in Auckland and Queenstown. We also discuss the role that patterns of remote working might have in helping out regional New Zealand.
