NAPIER-HASTINGS URBAN AREA
The 'Napier-Hastings Urban Area' is a New Zealand urban area that covers the twin cities of Napier and Hastings.
While the two cities remain separated by a fair tract of rural land, there is sufficient economic and social integration between the cities for Statistics New Zealand to aggregate them into a single unit. However, like the urban areas of Auckland, Hamilton and Wellington, the Napier-Hastings urban area is subdivided into urban zones. Both zones have a population of around 60,000. The urban area contains around three quarters of the population of the entire Hawke's Bay.
'Napier Urban Zone' includes the whole of Napier City and two tracts of rural land from Hastings District: Bay View to the north and Waiohiki to the south.
Although the Napier Urban Zone has a smaller population than Hastings Urban Zone, Napier is traditionally seen as the dominant city and capital of the Hawke's Bay. This is partly historical and partly because Hastings' population is divided between Hastings proper and its satellite towns. Napier is the port of Hawke's Bay while Hastings is further inland.
'Hastings Urban Zone' is completely within Hastings District and includes Havelock North, Flaxmere, Clive and Haumoana.
