Hobsonville is a rural suburban district of the Auckland metropolitan area in the North Island of New Zealand. Home to the former Royal New Zealand Air Force airfield, Hobsonville Point is currently being redeveloped as a new suburb of Auckland, in the area of the former Waitakere City. Hobsonville Village next to Hobsonville Point is also being developed by Auckland Council and the area known as Hobsonville Corridor joins the peninsula with Westgate, a new regional town being created by the council.
