Where have dutch mostly settled in NZ?

Dutch people haven't settled in any particular region of New Zealand in a concentrated way. While there is a Dutch community in New Zealand, their settlement is spread out across the country, much like other European ethnic groups.

Here's why:

* No Specific Historical Ties: Unlike some other European groups (like the British or Irish) who had significant historical connections to New Zealand, the Dutch have no such historical ties.

* Relatively Small Numbers: The Dutch population in New Zealand is relatively small compared to other European groups. This means they haven't established large, concentrated communities in any particular area.

* Immigration Patterns: Dutch immigration to New Zealand has been relatively steady over time, but not in any massive waves like some other European groups experienced.

Therefore, rather than focusing on a specific region, it's more accurate to say Dutch people in New Zealand are spread throughout the country, integrating into diverse communities.
