Hi,
After spending the last few months researching other areas and discounting Auckland it appears that Hubby has a company in South Auckland - Manurewa area interested in him.
To be honest we do not know much about this area and what we have heard has not been too nice (sorry if you live there and think otherwise) and was hoping that those of you in the know could give us a frank lowdown on this area and also those surrounding areas that may be more preferable to live in .
We would quite like a semi-rural area and somewhere with good schools as we have 4 kids - Hubby does not mind a 30min(ish) commute. So far we have been looking at the Franklin district and specifically Pukekohe, what is this like, are the schools good?? Is there anywhere that we should definitely avoid??
Thanks in advance for all your help and advice it is much appreciated
Jenny
