A digital version of official yearbooks going back to 1893 is now available on the Statistics New Zealand website. A great source of historical information.
Viewing and using the yearbooks
Choose a yearbook from the list and press [Ctrl]-F to search within it using keywords. Our main website search box will not search within these files.
So no global search available, but browsing and year searching could find a lot more interesting things.
There’s a large amount of information and statistics in each yearbook.
