Southgate is a suburb of Wellington, New Zealand, in the Paekawakawa/Southern Ward. The main road is Buckley Road, which runs south from the point at which Mount Albert Road changes name to Houghton Bay Road.

A housing development was created on Buckley Road in 1957,[3] and another ten years later.[4] Most houses in the suburb were built in the 1970s.[5]
