Wellington weather
Wellington can be known for its windy and fickle weather with mild summers and cold winters, often experiencing 4 seasons in one day.
Basking in 2110 hours of sun a year, the average temperatures range from 19 - 21°C. This is a great time to enjoy Wellington’s beaches and native walks across the wider city.
Winter months are June to August when average temperatures drop between 6 - 12°C with rainfall generally at its highest in June/July. It can often feel much colder due to the southerly winds that sweep through the city.
Wellington is the least polluted capital city in the world according to the most recent World Air Quality Report.
cost of living in Wellington
When it comes to living in Wellington, the location of the CBD can dictate the cost of transportation, rent, food and much more. Wellington for a while now has been viewed as an affordable place to live, however, in recent years the cost of living has increased significantly with demand outweighing supply. Despite this, the city alone boasts endless opportunities for tourists and residents.
The general cost of living in Wellington can be broken out by rent, public transport, groceries/food and meals out. On average expect to spend anywhere from $800 - $1,100 p/w across the core expenses, this range is an approximation and may vary depending on your location in the city.
average rent in Wellington
Wellington surprisingly is the first region in New Zealand to top $600 in median rent, surpassing Auckland. With this in mind and supply very much at its lowest, this can certainly change anyone's mind about living in the main city across the wider region. Add in daily expenses like groceries, utilities, and other elements like mobile phone plans, it gets a bit more daunting.
