Townsites

The majority of the 105,647klm of the Shire of Ashburton is divided into pastoral properties. Spread amongst these sprawling pastoral stations are the towns of Onslow, Pannawonica, Paraburdoo and Tom Price. The majority of the population of the Shire are resident in the four towns.

Tom Price, located in the eastern sector, is the largest town and the Shire Administration Centre. Paraburdoo is 80klm south of Tom Price with Pannawonica 330klm north west and Onslow is 380klm west of Tom Price in lineal distance, the distances by road are far in excess of these figures.
