Migrants rent because they have to by law - the Foreign Buyer ban prevents them from buying a home, and those with Resident visas have to wait 12 months after moving to NZ to qualify as "ordinarily resident" and exempt from the FBB.
You should also not assume that the migrant category of "manager" is highly paid. This category covers the huge number of immigrants brought in to work as "Restaurant Managers", "Liquor Store Managers" and "Retail Managers" when all they really are are waiters and shelf stackers.
The grouping is not by assumption. It is simply the categorisation applied. Yes I agree it potentially includes all sorts of categories, including made up. However it is all we have
Managing a liquor store or vape store probably doesn't command the same income as some other managerial positions.
So such people would not rate themselves as sales?
There is no follow up, it’s simply data capture
