We have been living in Auckland for almost 2 years. Love it here (though we arrived with low expectations). However, my partner has recently accepted a job offer in Wellington CBD. We will be moving in about three weeks.
Having looked at possible places to live we have decided that we would prefer to keep his commute to a minimum. On this basis we have ruled out Kapiti coast etc.
Internet research of one kind and another has turfed up Brooklyn, Karori and Wilton as possible places to live. Based mainly on schools and being in the Wellington college zone (bit premature as our eldest is 6 but it was a way of narrowing our options!). Anyone have any experience/words of wisdom in relation to these areas? We have been warned about the weather......everybody mentions it. I have a leaning towards Otari school in Wilton based on what I have read so would especially like info about this and Karori and Brooklyn primaries.
Many thanks.
