    Default Kerikeri vs Taranaki

    Hi all, we will be moving out of Auckland soon and am torn between Kerikeri area and Taranaki. We have a 4yr old so school next year. We would like to be close to the beach, and good schools. Any tips?

    Kerikeri is stunning, great lifestyle and fabulous beaches BUT it is very distant, small population and isolated. The road to Auckland is long and tedious, lots of the land is polluted with Lead Arsenate etc. If you take care and can live in a tiny society it is great, better to retire to than live with a young family, schooling is ethnically difficult, services are stretched and the weather is rapidly getting more challenging. Taranaki sounds far better but has many of the same problems!
