Static typing and JSON mapping (in TypeScript)

user.ts

export class User {
  id: string
  country: string
  email: string
  name: string
  tags: string[]
  verified: boolean
  active: boolean
  locale: string
  openIds: any
  parentalControl: boolean
  parentalControlPinCode: string
  zipCode: string
  mobilePhone: string
  createdTimestamp: string

  static fromJson(json: any): User {
    let user = new User()
    user.id = json.userId
    user.country = json.country
    user.email = json.email
    user.name = json.name
    user.tags = json.tags
    user.verified = json.verified
    user.active = json.active
    user.locale = json.locale
    user.openIds = json.openIds
    user.parentalControl = json.parentalControl
    user.mobilePhone = json.mobilePhone
    user.zipCode = json.zipCode
    user.parentalControlPinCode = json.parentalControlPinCode
    user.createdTimestamp = json.createdTimestamp

    console.log(json)
    return user
  }

  toJson(): any {
    let json = {}
    json['userId'] = this.id
    json['name'] = this.name
    json['email'] = this.email
    json['country'] = this.country
    json['tags'] = this.tags
    json['verified'] = this.verified
    json['active'] = this.active
    json['locale'] = this.locale
    json['openIds'] = this.openIds
    json['parentalControl'] = this.parentalControl
    json['mobilePhone'] = this.mobilePhone
    json['zipCode'] = this.zipCode
    json['parentalControlPinCode'] = this.parentalControlPinCode
    json['createdTimestamp'] = this.createdTimestamp
    return json
  }
}

yikes, to do this for for every different piece of JSON? seems like there is a better way
