Overall, more than 64 thousand New Zealanders left in the year to September – a 1% drop on the year before. 

Massey University sociologist Paul Spoonley told Mike Hosking most of these young people moving are school-leavers or university graduates. 

He says it's concerning, as it shows they are struggling to transition from the education system to the job market here.
