He is the only child of Mary and Fred Andrews. His father works as a mid-level business executive. His earlier life is revealed in the "Little Archie" stories when he had a dog named Spotty. He lives in Riverdale, where he attends Riverdale High School. Archie is a typical small-town teenager. His two main crushes are Veronica Lodge and Betty Cooper, forming the love triangle driving many of the comic's plot-lines. He has the best intentions, but often comes into conflict with Veronica's rich father, Hiram Lodge, and Riverdale High's principal, Waldo Weatherbee. As the lead singer of The Archies, Archie performs with Betty and Veronica, as well as his rival Reggie Mantle, and best friend Jughead Jones. Mary and Fred Andrews are of Scottish descent.
