The population of New Zealand at the 1991 census was 3,434,950. The 2000 population estimate is 3,697,850, giving the country an overall population density of 14 persons per sq km (35 per sq mi). Nearly three-quarters of the population (including more than 95 percent of the Maori) reside on North Island, however. Some 86 percent of the people live in urban areas, and about half of these in the four largest cities and their environs. According to the 1991 census, approximately 73 percent of the population of New Zealand is of European (mainly British) descent. About 12 percent (some 430,000) are Maori, a Polynesian group, whose ancestors migrated to New Zealand about AD 1200. About 4 percent of the population is of other Polynesian descent, and various other Asian ethnicities make up the rest of the population. The capital of New Zealand and the center of interisland and coastal shipping is Wellington. Other urban centers include Auckland, a seaport and major industrial center; Christchurch, the country's wheat and grain center; Hamilton, a center for dairy farming; and Dunedin, a wool and tourism center.
