That answer has to depend on what you call "close".

The northernmost point of New Zealand is about 2,375 miles from the equator ...

about the same as the distance between the equator and Simi Valley CA, Clovis NM,

Atoka OK, Pine Bluff AR, Hartsell AL, Rome GA, and Wilmington SC, as well as Rabat,

Tripoli, Qom, Herat and Kabul, Srinagar, Xi-an, and Hiroshima.
