Tarcowie (postcode 5431) is a town in South Australia. ''Tarcowie'' is an aboriginal word meaning ''torrential waters''. It was named by Governor Musgrave on 20 May 1875. At the , Tarcowie had a population of 205.〔(Australian Bureau of Statistics 2011 Census QuickStats. ).〕 The dominate industry in Tarcowie is sheep farming, however in recent times wind farming may be taking over as the main industry for the town. The Tarcowie Landcare Group (http://www.tarcowielandcaregroup.com.au/) is based in this town. They are an environmental organisation, trying to protect their patch of the Earth. ==2011 Census== 10 fewer people reside in the Tarcowie/Mannanarie district since the 2006 census.〔(Australian Bureau of Statistics 2011 Census QuickStats. ).〕 Locals blame this on the GFC and the Alcopop Tax that prevented the locals ability to get Bacardi Breezers at a reasonable price, this intern lowered the birth rate and lowered the population. Median weekly rent skyrocketed by over 27% since 2006 from $55 per week to $70 per week. A number of locals believe this growth is unsustainable and has the potential to bring on a 2nd GFC. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tarcowie, South Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
