SunLive has taken to the streets of Te Puke to find out where people would most like to live in the Western Bay of Plenty. There was a variety of answers but the overall sentiment appeared to be that Te Puke is a great place to live.

It would depend where my work was, somewhere near my work.

Here, back here where I belong because my family is all here.
Hoki Anderson, Kawerau

In the countryside, anywhere.
Chrystal McDonald, Paengaroa

I am a farm person you see, so I wouldn't want to live in town, I couldn't think of anything worse than looking over the fence and seeing a neighbour. In the countryside by Te Puke.
Frank Larsen, Te Puke

I would buy in Tauranga as there are more opportunities for my children over there.
Nicola Andrews, Te Puke

Mt Maunganui, I like the beach.
Rex Olsen, Mt Maunganui

I quite like Te Puke, I have friends here and in other places but I still like it here.
Maureen Woolsey, Te Puke
