User: What is it like to live in New Zealand?
Assistant: New Zealand is considered a really safe country to live in. Politics are quite liberal with the left and the right political parties not having a lot of difference between them. The climate is very diverse from the top of the North Island to the bottom of the South Island however all seasons are generally pretty mild without many extreme weather events. Housing is a big issue in New Zealand, with house prices being extremely high compared to income earned. The culture is could be described as laid back and easy going.
