What is referred to by "Nearby Area"?


By searching for a different location, you can see the same information for a different region (in Australia). By toggling between the city and the Nearby Area (or ~100 kilometres), you can see differences in job availability, demand and the top 5 job titles for each area. The Nearby Area uses the Lightcast taxonomy for locations. If you're near an economic centre, you'll see a "Nearby Area" which refers to the metro area in the Lightcast taxonomy.
