about Lower Hutt

Lower Hutt (pop 95,500) is a New Zealand city centred on the lower (southern) valley of the Hutt River, to the northeast of Wellington City. It is also known as Hutt City which is the name adopted by the City Council, but currently not accepted by the NZ Geographic Board or recognised in the Local Government Act. Lower Hutt forms part of the Wellington Region at the southern tip of the North Island. It is the ninth-largest city in New Zealand in population terms.

The region is popular for outdoor sports, especially mountain biking, hiking, fishing, recreational walking and swimming. The upper part of the Hutt River valley is encompassed by the independent city of Upper Hutt which as a much smaller demographic body objects to the name of Hutt City adopted by the Hutt City Council.

Lower Hutt geography

Lower Hutt also encompasses islands in the northern half of Port Nicholson (Wellington Harbour), the largest of which was known as Somes Island until recently renamed Matiu/Somes Island.

Lower Hutt history

In 1987-89 the policy of the Government of the day forced local authorities to become more efficient through consolidation, which led to Lower Hutt amalgamating with the adjacent Boroughs of Petone and Eastbourne and the Wainuiomata District (which had achieved its own independence for barely a year).
