Korokoro, a suburb of Lower Hutt City, lies in the south of the North Island of New Zealand. The suburb occupies part of the western hills of the Hutt Valley; its eastern slopes overlook Petone and the Wellington harbour.

Korokoro was established in the 1900s by the Liberal government (in office 1891-1912), and remained a relatively small settlement until the Lower Hutt City Council developed the area for private housing in the 1960s.[2]{{failed verification|date=May 2018}}. Before 1989, Korokoro formed part of the Petone Borough,[3]

which amalgamated with Lower Hutt City in that year.[4]

Korokoro has a full primary school established in 1904 called Korokoro School with over 180 pupils attend. The school has eight classrooms and is decile 10.[5]

Korokoro is the entrance of Lower Hutt from Wellington.{{cn|date=May 2018}}

Korokoro is home to the football club, Stanhope Lane AFC. The club chant "looks like Waterloo takes it out again" has been a post-game tradition since 2012.{{cn|date=May 2018}}
