Industries in Mortlake
RESIDENTS in Mortlake work in a large variety of different industries, from healthcare to education to manufacturing.
No individual industry dominates the area, but the top three industries which rule the workforce, according to 2021 Census data, are healthcare, agriculture and retail.
When exploring interest state-wide for the past year, Google Trends data shows when compared to agriculture and retail, healthcare is the most searched industry in Victoria.
This is followed by retail, with interest in agriculture noticeably lacking over time.
While agriculture is a significant industry in the Mortlake region, interest state-wide may not be as high due to a majority of the population living in metropolitan areas.
Interest in all industries fell towards the end of the year and beginning of the new year, which may indicate people were not job searching or considering work over the holiday period.
Interest in all industries across Victoria peaked between April and May this year, except for agriculture, which peaked mid-February.
Interest in all industries in general has been sloping in a relative downwards trend across the state compared to the rest of the year.
However, this may align with people becoming less interested in searching industries towards the holiday season.
