The inner suburb where everyone works for themselves.
Fitzroy North is an inner-north Melbourne suburb of 12,781 people, and the money backs up the postcode: household income runs $2,300 a week, comfortably above the Melbourne median. The suburb carries an estimated 2,340 local businesses, mostly the studios, clinics and consultancies you'd expect from a well-off inner suburb. Zoom out to Yarra council and the pattern holds: professional, scientific & technical services is the largest sector by a wide margin, with 3,788 businesses on the books. This is a suburb built on people who sell expertise, not shifts.
"My clients all come through referrals" is what plenty of Fitzroy North's consultants, architects and allied health practitioners say when the website question comes up. It works right up until the referral googles the business before calling, and in a suburb where professional, scientific & technical services outnumber every other sector in Yarra, the person doing the googling knows exactly what a proper site looks like. Family income here runs $3,207 a week and the median age is 36, an audience that has commissioned designers and developers themselves and can spot a bargain-bin template in four seconds. A dentist, an architect, a naturopath or a graphic designer doesn't need to convince this crowd that professionals exist online. They need to prove they're one of the good ones, and a site that looks handmade by a nephew does the opposite.
