Ellerslie is a suburb of the city of Auckland, New Zealand, seven kilometres southeast of the city centre. Mainly a residential suburb, the area is famous as the location of the major horse-racing venue in Auckland, the Ellerslie Racecourse, and the original site of the Ellerslie Flower Show.
The suburb was named after the early local politician and merchant Robert Graham's father's home in Elderslie, Renfrewshire, Scotland. Graham arrived in Auckland as an assisted immigrant from Scotland in October 1842.
At the 2018 New Zealand census, Ellerslie had a population of 9,186 with 3,174 households.
The Ellerslie Racecourse is the major racecourse in Auckland, New Zealand, for thoroughbred racehorses. It is a rippling grass circuit in the suburbs of Ellerslie, with a circumference of just under 1,900 metres.
The Ellerslie Domain is situated in the centre of Ellerslie and has tennis and rugby fitness facilities. Numerous sports organisations use the domain for their training, including the Ellerslie Eagles, who play in the Auckland Rugby League.
The Michaels Avenue Reserve is a large open green zone used for sports and leisure. The reserve has an exciting variety of plants and animals and has a playground for children and fields for cricket and soccer.
Ellerslie School and St Mary's School are the primary schools in Ellerslie. Other secondary schools serving the local community include One Tree Hill College, St Peter's College and the Baradene College of the Sacred Heart.
Excellent life advice on the gritty streets of Ellerslie

It feels a bit like we're living in a distopian novel right now. Our lives have become so small and so quiet. This was Auckland's Southern Motorway at 5.45pm tonight ↔️. Usually it's bumper to bumper and crawling along at 20-30kms an hour, especially on a Friday evening (I know, I've travelled along it nightly for the last six years). As eerie and apocalyptic as walking out in the world feels right now, I'm proud that (most) Kiwis are doing the right thing to try and halt the spread of this horrible virus.

These are three of my favourite dishes from Mexico Ellerslie - cumin spiced crispy squid tostada, agave braised pork ribs, and Mexico fried chicken. 😋 Ordered these several times, best way to end a busy day at work! 👌🏽😁 It’s a shame they don’t have the pork ribs in their ubereats menu anymore (I want them back please 🥺🙏🏼).
