Stats NZ gives data an overall rating based on sources and coverage, consistency, and data quality.
Why am I seeing this?
This data is from the Census. The past two censuses had relatively low response rates, particularly for some areas of New Zealand and groups of people.
Where information was missing or unreadable, Stats NZ attempted to use data from a range of places such as previous censuses or administrative data that is collected by other government agencies. If that isn't available, Stats NZ use statistical models to predict what the missing data would have been. This is called imputation.
Things to be aware of
These figures may not be strictly comparable with other data collections such as the Household Labour Force Survey and the Quarterly Employment Survey. This is because those surveys are based upon only a sample of the population and they don’t account for all income sources.
When using the data, users should be aware that there has been a change in methodology for admin data resulting in better coverage across sources in the 2023 Census.
Care must also be taken when cross-tabulating 'sources of personal income' with 'total personal income', as people may make money from more than one source.
Ethnicity is a multiple-response variable, therefore the number of total responses will be greater than the number of respondents (e.g. a person who identifies as Samoan and Chinese would be counted once in each category).
A person may vary their reporting of their ethnicity, including the number of ethnicities they identify with, according to the context in which they are asked. This is a consideration when comparing the census results with other sources.
These figures identify all the various sources from which a person received income in the 12 months ending 7 March 2023. This excludes any income that is not money.
This information applies to the census usually resident population aged 15 years and over.
People may obtain income from more than one source.
Ethnicity is the ethnic group or groups a person identifies with or has a sense of belonging to. It is a measure of cultural affiliation (in contrast to race, ancestry, nationality, or citizenship). This demographic attribute is self-perceived, and a person can belong to more than one ethnic group.
Response rates and final data sources
For sources of personal income, the response rate from 2023 Census forms was 84.8%. 14.4% were sourced from administrative data supplied by Inland Revenue, Ministry of Social Development, and Working for Families. 0.8% of responses were imputed.
For ethnic group, the response rate from 2023 Census forms was 86%. In addition, 8.8% of responses were sourced from forms submitted during the previous censuses. 4.4% were sourced from administrative data such as the births register, education enrolments, Ministry of Health, Corrections, and Ministry of Defence datasets. 0.8% of responses were imputed.

Data calculation/treatment
This data has been randomly rounded to protect confidentiality. Figure.NZ calculated percentages based on the 'Total stated' values for each variable. Individual percentages may not sum to 100% and values for the same data may vary in different tables.

The New Zealand Census of Population and Dwellings is the official count of how many people and dwellings there are in New Zealand. It provides a snapshot of our society at a point in time and helps to tell the story of its social and economic change. The 2023 Census, held on Tuesday 7 March, was the 35th New Zealand Census of Population and Dwellings. The first official census was run in 1851, and since 1877 there has been a census every five years, with only four exceptions.
Purpose of collection
Census information is used by government agencies, local authorities, businesses, community organisations, and the public for developing and implementing new policies, research, planning, and decision-making. It helps us make decisions about how to best use public funding, especially in areas of health, education, housing, and transport.
The census is also the primary source of information used for deciding the number of general and Māori electorates, along with data from the corresponding Māori Electoral Option.
