I was born and raised in west Auckland. It is all a matter of perspective. As a boy everything was great, innocent and exciting. As I grew older the rot was clearer to see.
Hey Curls I was raised in Te Atatu my parents had a shop in Henderson, I worked in the first Kmart there before heading to Convict land.if you go to TeAtatu my old man and his mates built the TeAtatu Rugby league club, next to the north western motorway.Cheers from Brisbane DA.
I grew up in West Auckland, I would move back in a heartbeat. Henderson main road back in the day was the place to be seen. Still an awesome place to be with a wild reputation.
I am a born and bred 'Westie'. and Henderson was my neighbourhood, you walked past many of my places of work or favourite places. Corbans used to be a vineyard/winery and the Corban family were among the earliest settlers of Henderson, they are well known. West Aucklander's are the most down to earth and friendly people you could meet. Enjoy
I wouldn't say henderson is they new south auckland, sure its a little sketchy at times but I see way more sketchy things in south auckland like Otara or Manurewa. I would say the most sketchy place in auckland would be the CBD itself. If you wana explore more sketchy places in west maybe look at massey i know there is some gang stuff there and few years ago i think a cop was killed there.
Corbans is a winery - one of the original (white) settlers in the area Best art out there, check out the statue by the roundabout beside Westwave Also theres nowhere in South Auck with the number and variety of shops as Henderson, closest prob Papakura
I used to live in Titirangi and when I first moved there I didn't have a car and members of the Head Hunters MC gave me a lift up to the shops. Being into motorsport, I fitted right in. West Aucks. 👍
Henderson has improved the west city mall and public transport (rail -link) connecting West Auckland to Auckland Central. It's still a dodgy place though haha.
it isn't out of control the media would have you believing that as well as our current government but Henderson has always been questionable haha!!! good shopping though
What they mean i when something is called STH Auckland is full of social housing and poor Maori and Pacific Islanders. We are partly that and many of those people are awesome.😊 Hendo is a bit bland. The sculpture is called a pou.
New Zealand is safe really I wouldn't be out walking around at midnight etc them japanese marts are good but most of the time I go there don't need to buy anything
Welcome to west Auckland bro go try the pies in te atatu south the west side bakery! The steak and cheese are mean! And the banoffee pie! Or in the west city mall they have nice pies as'well it's called upper crust there not as good as back in the days but there still good lol It used to bad in west Auckland back in the 90s 2000s it's changed a lot now! You can actually walk down the street without getting into a fight! 😆😆 I cant complain I love this place haha!
Dare him to go at night for a walk here, looks like he went way too early here. It looks about 8am in the start of his vid lol. You have to come at night for the true experience here lol. Been to west at night, lets just say never again. Dont know how much has changed since labours been outta power though. Was there last year.

Been loving the videos!, Will we be getting a Whanganui Video sometime?, On Saturday they have a open market 9am-2pm I think
Hi bro good to see you around my place. I'm up the road from there 👍🤟✌️. you always make great videos about New Zealand great work 😊
Kia Ora Curls! Good to see you in good ol' Hendo lol I hope the west treated you well 🙏🏽 much aroha! Keep up the good mahi/content 👌🏽

The league club even got broken into last year and stuff stolen. Roosters still going strong and still based by the motorway.
Are the kiwi league clubs any good? Can they match it with the convicts?
Convict land, love it!
Bros out west like wild west life old america bro

You should do the northern explorer train it’s got nice surroundings and an amazing view you should do a video on it

Same here Massey.

The "av" in Avondale is pronounced in the same way that you would say "have". Just drop the "h"

You should definitely check out Massey some time it's quite similar to Henderson and I think you'd love it.
I feel very safe living here in the Wild West

The Corbans are of middle eastern descent (Arabian)
@PaulG.x Corbans are Lebanese well the original owner was anyway.

DUUUUUUUUUDE. I lived out Henderson way for a nearly a year (over 20 years ago now, I'm old) back when I was a drama student

so early, just went to Auckland for Easter, place is crazy. bigger than the bay that's for sure
I’ve only been down to Henderson once in 2015. The people there are friendly. Had more clashes with people where I live compared to the westies.

also dale is defo not west, no matter how much people from there say its west haha
I live out these ways my whole life(and still do). Hendo mall can be hood as when its packed compared to other malls in Auckland😂
it isn't out of control the media would have you believing that as well as our current government but Henderson has always been questionable haha!!! good shopping though
I do miss Japan mart though
😂

You present yourself as a 'visitor' to a museum and the area is the exhibit.Talk to some people for a change..An idea, do one on the town you are from
You crack me up😂 You should be a big as a house the way you talk about food Curls. Love it
Would be good if you interview some who been inside
There is a town here in new zealand where the gangs ran the police out of town.
Try there 😂 not auckland lol
I live in henderson and I go to that mall to do my shopping. I wish I would of seen you
New Zealand is safe really I wouldn't be out walking around at midnight etc them japanese marts are good but most of the time I go there don't need to buy anything
up the west should check out massey and westgate/northwest
Beautiful place Curls. No worries 😎
Avondale is pronounced 'Ave' as in 'have'

West is BEST!!
My god its so empty of people compared to Australia.
@d.a2500 27 million in oz now and growing fast . 1 mill of those 5 will be in Australia as well so only 4 mill in nz really
I liked Australia when we had less people tho. The cities are getting to big now
@@ACDZ123 NZ's population is over 5.1mil
@@gtone339 yeah but 1 million of the 5 is living somewhere else . Lucky if there's 3.5 /4 actually in nz
My town!!
Corban center is a gymnasium and leisure Centre. I used to play basketball there.
Westgate and Nor west must be your next stop.. Wc to the hood Curls 👌
You should visit Daiso. One on Queen Street and the other one at Westfield St Luke.
Always need a loofah 😂😂
There are two more Japan Mart. One in Newmarket and the other one at Sylvia Park.
