Waikato Migrant Perceptions Survey
The Migrant perceptions survey is run by Eastern Bridge annually. It aims to understand the experience of East Asian migrants in New Zealand. The survey captures 20 regional samples, with 100 randomly selected respondents for each sample. There are three main categories: Lifestyle – education, healthcare, housing, safety, employment and welcoming communities; tourism and doing business. Each sample region is provided a score between 1 and 100, the higher the score, the more welcoming the area.
The Waikato Region scores well and is considered a welcoming region:
