HOW TO READ THIS
Source and limitations
Wealth measure: Stats NZ individual assets less liabilities; includes individuals with zero net worth
- All figures rounded by source to nearest NZD1000; no interpolated percentiles or household-to-person conversion.
- Relative sampling error accompanies every selected statistic. Large RSE estimates are highly uncertain and support only cautious rounded comparisons.
- Age-standardised ethnicity groups differ from unadjusted ethnicity×age groups; ethnic groups overlap and must not be summed.
- Gender Another has especially high RSE; source estimate is retained with uncertainty, not promoted to precise ranking.
- Values for2015/2018/2021 are not mixed into2024; updated workbook incorporates revised2021 joint-asset allocation.
