Welcome

Northern Midlands is one of the largest and most diverse municipalities in Tasmania.

It covers an area of 5,130 km , extending from Liffey Bluff in the west to Mount St John in the east (150kms) and from Relbia in the north to Tooms Lake in the south (95kms). The landscape changes from mountainous country on its eastern and western boundaries to extensive grazing lands renowned for fine wool production, the rich agricultural river flats of the Esk, Lake and Macquarie Rivers; historic towns and villages; and from small businesses to multi-million dollar enterprises.

Many of the towns and villages have distinctive heritage qualities, which make them attractive places to live.

The population of approximately 12,500 is expected to increase by 1,000 over the next five years as development continues to occur in and around the Launceston commuter towns of Longford, Perth and Evandale.
