Confusion over the name

A casual reading of any list of population data from this part of New Zealand which includes "Evansdale" will appear to indicate that the tiny road-corner cluster of houses at Evansdale is a large town.

In 2005 publication of the results of a Dunedin City Council survey on water reticulation led to protests and accusations of gerrymandering as a vast number of survey respondents were listed as living in "Evansdale". The City Council was simply using the name and boundaries provided by Statistics New Zealand, used in other census gathering.
