The Hunua electorate existed three times for the House of Representatives of New Zealand beginning in 1978, based at the south end of the Auckland urban area, and named for the Hunua Ranges. It covered different geographical areas over those periods. The electorate is currently represented by Andrew Bayly of the National Party.
Hunua (pronounced as Hinua)is a small settlement in the rural outskirts of south Auckland, New Zealand. The Hunua Statistical area, which covers a much larger area than the settlement, had a population of 4242 people in the 2013 Census, an increase of 144 people from the previous census in 2006.
Hunua is east of Papakura, from Hunua Falls and lies at the foot of the Hunua Ranges, from where Auckland obtains most of its water supply. The literal translation of the Maori language word is 'mountainous and sterile land'.
Hunua School, established in 1876, caters for Year 1 to 8 students.
