You're probably right. Auckland has really terrible public transport options, like no subway (it is building a tiny loop in the middle of the CBD) and very little in the way of light rail - it doesn't even have a rail link to the international airport which is bizarre in a city of that size and sprawl. People there are obsessed with cars, but unless you live in the inner suburbs it's not that great without one.

There's also a lot more of this sort - these ones have garaging at the back because it's a new build in an outer suburb.
