Hello everyone! Thank you all for taking my Auckland suburb quizzes so numerously! It's been a pleasure to see quizzes like those going popular. I do have a few additional comments on this quiz.
- There were a few suburbs where Google Maps didn't show boundaries, but I thought they were important, so I tried to add them in using imprecise hand-drawn boundaries. Such suburbs include Morningside, Balmoral, Waikowhai and more. I hope they're still recognizable :)
- the suburb boundaries are in fact much more detailed as the North Shore for example. Many boundaries have been simplified
