Andover Pawtella

Andover and Pawtella are both sparsely populated rural areas in Tasmania. Andover has a far higher proportion of First Nations people (10.3% compared to 0.0%) and more children under 15 (25.6% compared to 12.1%). In contrast, Pawtella has a much higher share of older residents, with 18.2% aged 65 and over compared to none in Andover. Typical weekly family income is also well higher in Pawtella at $2,124, while Andover is much lower at $1,416.

Both areas are effectively alike in their lack of local infrastructure, with both being car-dependent and having no public transport or amenities within a short walk. This shared isolation is reflected in the fact that neither area has anyone who speaks a language other than English at home. While Andover has more volunteers and a higher share of adults with a bachelor degree, both areas remain far below the national figures for school completion.
