The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 69,174 Auroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
