Nedervetil (Finnish: Alaveteli)[1] is a former municipality in Ostrobothnia, Finland. It is now part of Kronoby municipality.

It has given its Finnish name to Alaveteli[citation needed], open source software to help in Freedom of Information enquiries, because Anders Chydenius (1729–1803), an early proponent of freedom of the press, lived and worked as a curate in this area for some years.
