Much of the data found in Regional Statistics - Tasmania relates to Statistical Region Sectors, also referred to in this publication as 'Statistical Regions' or 'Regions'. Statistical Region Sectors are defined by the Australian Standard Geographical Classification (ASGC). The ASGC is used by the ABS for the collection and dissemination of geographically classified statistics.

Each of the Statistical Region Sectors in Tasmania contains one or more Local Government Areas. Local Government Areas do not cross Statistical Region Sector boundaries.

For more information on the ASGC, contact the Assistant Director, Area Classification, on telephone (02) 6252 5888, facsimile (02) 6252 8666, email geography@abs.gov.au or by writing to PO Box 10, Belconnen, ACT 2616.
