Aucklanders react to Judgmental Map

  • 20/11/2017

A satirical map of Auckland replacing suburb names with tongue-in-cheek alternatives has caused a splash on social media.

South Auckland has been renamed 'Extra Police Resources', while Waiheke is split between 'Hippies and 'Wine Wankers'.

But what do Aucklanders think of the map? Newshub took to the streets to ask them and most say it's a generally accurate breakdown of the city's many stereotypes and subcultures.

"Wankers…sounds about right," said one Parnell resident.

"That's basically why anyone lives there, for the school," said a resident of the 'Double Grammar Zone'.  "It's kind of average."

One Henderson local said the descriptor 'Cheryl West' was "pretty accurate".

A proud Grafton resident said the simple label 'Porn' was fairly representative of his area, which he said has ""some of the best porn you can find".

"It's pretty accurate, I'm standing up in that window every night showing my body off."
