Here is where Mono residents work, by private-sector industry, compared with Ontario as a whole:
| Industry (NAICS) | Mono | ON |
|---|---|---|
| Health care and social assistance | 11.4% | 12.0% |
| Retail trade | 11.1% | 11.1% |
| Construction | 10.6% | 7.5% |
| Professional, scientific and technical services | 8.6% | 9.5% |
| Manufacturing | 8.3% | 9.1% |
| Transportation and warehousing | 6.0% | 5.3% |
The sector that sets Mono apart is farming, forestry and fishing, at 2.2 times its weight across Ontario. That concentration shows up in deposit patterns, from contract payments to seasonal peaks. Construction is also above the provincial share, at 10.6%.
Retail and services dominate, with modest swings. Holiday spending lifts the fourth quarter. Snow season helps Mono clearing and indoor trades but slows patios and landscaping.
Explain a predictable dip when you apply rather than letting the numbers speak alone.
A grain and oilseed farm in Mono with about $90,000 in monthly deposits takes $40,000 to buy materials for booked jobs at a 1.30 factor rate, for a total payback of $52,000 over about 6 months. That works out to roughly $2,002 a week, or about 10% of monthly deposits; the cost is fixed at $12,000 however quickly it is repaid on schedule.
