Mount Roskill is a volcanic peak and suburban area in the city of Auckland, New Zealand.
   The peak, which is to the southwest end of the suburb, is 110 metres in height, and is one of the many extinct cones which dot the isthmus of Auckland, all of which are part of the Auckland Volcanic Field.
   The suburb is located seven kilometres to the south of the city centre, and is surrounded by the neighbouring suburbs of Three Kings, Sandringham, Wesley, Hillsborough and Mount Albert. The Mount Roskill shops are located at the intersection of Mount Albert and Dominion Roads.
   One of the city's larger suburbs, it was largely farmland until after the Second World War. It was a separate borough from 1947 until local government reorganisation in 1989 amalgamated it with Auckland City.
   In the past, Mount Roskill was referred to as the Bible Belt of Auckland, as it contains the most number of churches per capita in New Zealand. Now however, Mt Roskill is an ethnically diverse community with at least 54 different nationalities represented here, making it perhaps the most diverse suburb in New Zealand. A mix of Indian,Pacific Islanders, Europeans, and various East and South Asian goups make this middle class community interesting. The local school is Mount Roskill Grammar.
