Showing the growth in different sectors of the economy over the period. Sectors shown in blue are growing more rapidly than average population growth

Growth by Industry: 1851–1911

Showing growth by industry over the period. Note that the extreme outliers are primarily in industries which were very small or non-existant in 1851

Population doubled over the period: any industry growing more than 100% outpaced population growth, industries which grew less lagged.
