		Auckland City is the largest city in New Zealand, with the provisional estimated resident population being 425,400 as at 20 June 2005.
		Recently, connected with discussions about rates increases and plans to improve the public services of the region, which some consider substandard for a city of this size, there have been calls for further integration, namely with the other cities of the Auckland conurbation, or even forming a unitary authority.
