  • 1An increasing number of people are being told by government agencies to live in caravan parks because of a lack of affordable housing. In many cases they're the vulnerable, including former prison inmates and mental health patients. The accommodation at the Western Village Park in Ranui is a mix of tiny one-bedroom units and decrepit caravans, and is home to 300 semi-permanent residents. Is the owner providing the needy with a service, or exploiting them to make money?

  • 3Buying Up Big Time As house prices in Auckland continue to rise, so too has talk that wealthy migrants are to blame. While it may sound xenophobic, or even racist, the fact is many people feel they are being cut out of owning a slice of the Kiwi dream because of rich migrants with money to burn.
