According to the 2023 Census of Montenegro, it had a population of 988.

Archaeological research of the ''Institute for monuments protection'' from Cetinje in 1956 discovered that traces of material culture from the Neolithic period exist in Berane valley. In addition, traces of Illyrian culture were also found, so it can be assumed that the environment of Andrijevica was an ecumenical space of numerous groups of people. Remainders of Roman settlements are also present in Berane valley, as well as in the vicinity of Andrijevica town. Dur ...
