In today’s ever-changing economy, staying put in your own country sometimes can feel like a dead end. We’d always want to venture into greener pasture for a better life. But where? With hundreds, if not thousands of countries to choose from, where should we head?
New Zealand’s economic freedom score is 81.4, making its economy the 4th freest in the 2013 Index. Its score is 0.7 point worse than last year, reflecting declines in the control of government spending and monetary freedom that outweigh improvements in investment freedom and freedom from corruption. New Zealand is ranked 4th out of 41 countries in the Asia–Pacific region. With that said, New Zealand seems like a very good option to consider.
Getting to New Zealand is not difficult these days. There are a number of flights that go to New Zealand (Auckland, Wellington and their other airports). Auckland would be a great area of New Zealand to start finding a job. Back in 2009, Auckland had 353,000 jobs, of which 26.3% was held by property and business services, as well as 65,655 businesses, making up 13.1% of New Zealand’s businesses and 16.2% of New Zealand’s jobs.
Upon arrival in Auckland’s International Airport, you can rent out a car from the Best Car Rental Auckland Airport to explore the city. Look for a house(you can visit HOME LOANS NZ to help you with mortgages and home loans) , a possible place to work, and basically get the feel of living there. Even owning a car is pretty easy and cheap there–whether it be brand new or second hand(check out MOTOMART MOTORCYCLE ACCESSORIES for great deals on auto parts and accessories, if you choose in buying a second hand vehicle and would want to fix it up) Setting up a new life isn’t difficult either with numerous options for housing loans to help you set up a place to live, and hundreds of employment opportunities.
Auckland is also New Zealand’s most cosmopolitan city so you’ll basically have everything that you’ll need: restaurants, entertainment, good schools for your children. While Auckland suffers from the usual issues associated with any large city, it has recently made some inroads against crime, with the period from 2007 to 2008 showing a drop in crimes reported of 4%, while nationally, there was a 1.2% rise.
