Shame you'd have to live in Auckland.

  Not that the following necessarily negates HN's dislike for such one-liners, but here's a little context on the above comment, for people outside NZ: The single city of Auckland, which is located at the northern end of New Zealand's 1600km long landmass, holds about one-third of the country's total population. By contrast, for example, the entire South Island of New Zealand - which is about 60% of the country's landmass - holds about 23% of the country's population. The somewhat extreme geographical population spread means that there is a constant undercurrent of "Auckland, and The Rest" in NZ culture. It is this to which the above poster attempts to make humorous reference.
