Figure 14 Occupancy rate by selected ethnicity (2006)3.33.12.92.72.52.32.11.91.71.51996 2001 2006Source: Statistics New Zealand, Census 2006Mäori European Pacific Peoples102 The occupancy rate is the average number of usual residents per household inprivate dwellings. The occupancy rate for Māori decreased consistently from 1996 to2006. This decrease was also observed for the European population, but is reversedfor Pacific people (see Figure 14). While Pacific peoples had the highest occupancyrates in 1996, 2001, and 2006, Māori have the second highest in 2001 and 2006.The European population showed a slightly higher occupancy rate than Māori in1996. However, this observation may be explained by the deviation of the recordingof ethnicity in the 1996 Census which mostly affected the figures for European (referto technical notes section on page 5).Crowding103 This section explores crowding in two ways. First, crowding prevalence is presentedat a household level, secondly at a population level. This is to provide a completepicture of the extent of crowding for Māori. The numbers derived in both ways candiffer quite significantly because of the household composition and the age structureof the Māori population.Household crowding104 In 2006, 28,100 or 12.9 percent of Māori households 35 required at least one extrabedroom to adequately accommodate household members. Between 1986 and2006, the proportion of Māori households living in crowded housing has steadilydeclined (see Figure 15). In 1986, 22.4 percent of Māori households wereovercrowded. This percentage consistently decreased to 15.1 percent in 1996, andcontinued decreasing at a slower rate to the 2006 level of 12.9 percent.105 In 1986, levels of overcrowding were four times higher for Māori households than forEuropean households, and lower than for Pacific households. Despite the decline inovercrowding of Māori households, in 2006 this difference remained the same.Compared with Pacific households, in 2006, Māori households had half the level of35 Māori households are defined as households with at least 1 Māori household member (usualresident).26
crowding. While over time the percentage of overcrowded Pacific households hasdecreased, Māori rates have decreased at a proportionately higher rate.Figure 15 Proportion of crowded households (requiring at least one extra bedroom), byethnicity (1986-2006)40%35%30%25%20%15%10%5%0%1986 1991 1996 2001 2006Mäori European Pacific Peoples Total, New ZealandSource: Statistics New Zealand, Census 1986, 1991, 1996, 2001 and 2006, customised data prepared for HNZC106 Figure 16 shows the severity of crowded households by ethnicity in 2006. Fourpercent of Māori households were severely crowded (requiring two or morebedrooms), and nine percent were crowded requiring one extra bedroom. Māorirates of severe household crowding were four times higher than for Europeanhouseholds, but less than half when compared with Pacific households. Māori ratesof household crowding were four and a half times higher than for Europeanhouseholds, and nearly half the rate of Pacific households.27
