Western Heights, Auckland

Western Heights is a neighborhood of Henderson, Auckland, New Zealand. Originally considered as an overpriced part of Henderson, Western Heights has increasingly been considered a suburb in its own right as its population has increased, mainly through the construction of subdivisions. Western Heights School and the nearby shops are the centre of the community. Western Heights is a "frontier suburb", separating suburban Auckland from lifestyle farming blocks, orchards and the Waitākere Ranges. The local State secondary schools are Henderson High School, Waitakere College, Massey High School, Liston College and St Dominic's College.
