The share of urban population in New Zealand saw no significant changes in 2023 in comparison to the previous year 2022 and remained at around 86.98 percent. Nevertheless, 2023 still represents a peak in the share in New Zealand. A country's urbanization rate refers to the share of the total population living in an urban setting. International comparisons of urbanization rates may be inconsistent, due to discrepancies between definitions of what constitutes an urban center (based on population size, area, or space between dwellings, among others).
