What s important about where you live? Whether it s diversity, sunshine, house prices - or something else - Stuff is helping find the Sweet Spot for you. The Christchurch city-fringe suburb Addington has been picked as our top place to live in the country, based on data including affordability, sunshine hours, prosperity and public transport. It has working class roots but is more recently known as up-and-coming, and real estate remains relatively affordable.

Addington is still a relatively affordable place to buy a home. People are beginning to appreciate its location on the edge of Hagley Park, and within 2km of the city centre, as well as its historic architecture, mixed socio-economic make-up and community feel.
