Kapiro
Kapiro is a locality in the Far North District of Northland, New Zealand. State Highway 10 passes through Kapiro. Waipapa is 2.7 km south, and Kaeo is 19 km northwest, by road.
The Kapiro block was a designated Kauri gum reserve after 1898 to restrict the harvesting of gum. The gum was depleted by 1919, and suggestions were made to use the land for settlement of returning soldiers from World War I, or planting trees on it. The land was covered with a noxious weed, hakea.
An experimental farm was established in the late 1920s. This was not promising at first, but by the mid 1940s the experiment was much more successful. Kapiro became a rich dairying area.
A vineyard was established from 2007.
The SA1 statistical area which includes Kapiro covers 2.35 km2 (0.91 sq mi). The SA1 area is part of the larger Lake Manuwai-Kapiro statistical area.
The SA1 statistical area had a population of 162 in the 2023 New Zealand census, an increase of 6 people (3.8%) since the 2018 census, and an increase of 6 people (3.8%) since the 2013 census. There were 78 males and 84 females in 63 dwellings. 1.9% of people identified as LGBTIQ+. The median age was 53.0 years (compared with 38.1 years nationally). There were 21 people (13.0%) aged under 15 years, 24 (14.8%) aged 15 to 29, 75 (46.3%) aged 30 to 64, and 45 (27.8%) aged 65 or older.
People could identify as more than one ethnicity. The results were 87.0% European (Pākehā), 14.8% Māori, and 1.9% Asian. English was spoken by 98.1%, Māori language by 1.9%, and other languages by 3.7%. No language could be spoken by 1.9% (e.g. too young to talk). The percentage of people born overseas was 20.4, compared with 28.8% nationally.
Religious affiliations were 25.9% Christian. People who answered that they had no religion were 68.5%, and 3.7% of people did not answer the census question.
