Dear Mr Whitaker
Thank you for your email of 12 July 2016 requesting under the Official Information Act 1982, the following
information:
I am interested in calculating the total number of tenants living in each Wellington suburb.
To do so, I would like to know:
1. The total number of rental houses of each size (i.e. number of bedrooms) for each Wellington
suburb.
2. Any data you hold on the average occupancy for rental properties of each size.
3. Any other information you might hold that would help me determine the total number of tenants
living in each suburb.
Finally — if possible — I would be great to receive this information for as many previous years as
possible to see change over time.
Your request is being processed in accordance with the Official Information Act 1982. If you have any
enquiries regarding your request, you may contact us via email at [MBIE request email] or
