Wanganui has a higher divorce rate and lower incomes than the general population.
These are just a few of the statistics to come out of the 2013 Census, and they will be presented at a public forum in Wanganui next week.
Victoria Treliving from Statistics New Zealand said staff were currently travelling towns and cities throughout the country presenting statistics about the census.
We want to inform people about whats happening in their communities, and let them know how they can use the census data.
The forum will be held between 9am and 11.30am on Thursday, June 5. There is no cost to attend.
