N.Z. population 3,265,500
PA Wellington New Zealand’s population is 3,265,500, according to provisional estimates released by the Government Statistician, Mr Stephen Kuzmicich. For the year ended March 31, 1984, the population increased by 35,500, or 1.1 per cent. For the previous 12 months the increase had been 39,900, or 1.25 per cent. The estimate is based on the final count of total population from the 1981 census, adjusted for natural increase and net migration. During the quarter ended March 31, 1984, there was an estimated decrease in
population of 4000, resulting from a natural increase (excess of births over deaths) of 7400 and a net loss through migration of 11,400. This compares with the corresponding quarters in 1983 and 1982 when there was a population increase of 200 and a population decrease of 5700 respectively. The provisional estimate of mean population for the year ended March 31, 1984, is 3,234,900. The estimate includes the populations of the Kermadec Islands and Campbell Islands, but excludes Niue, Tokelau, and the Cook Islands.
