Living in Wellington means living under New Zealand's tax and legal system. The essentials, from our country research:
Would New Zealand actually work for your taxes?
It runs regimes like Transitional Tax Resident (TTR), and whether they fit depends on your income, assets and citizenship, not on averages.
Each month scores 0 to 10 from four weighted components: temperature (35%), sunshine (25%), humidity (20%) and rain (20%), with an extra penalty when heat and humidity combine. Personal tolerances reshape the score: your heat limit compares to how afternoons feel (heat index), your cold limit to typical nights. Data: NASA POWER climatology 2001-2020 with elevation corrections, daylight computed from latitude.
