Why we publish this
1.5% of us
We share this portrait because a council below the New South Wales average is the one most likely to be planned for as though everybody here reads English. 195 of us do not, at home, and a service that reaches everyone except them has not reached everyone. This almanac exists so that the number is on the record before the decision is made.

1.5% of Cabonne residents speak a language other than English at home, against 25.7% for New South Wales and 21.3% nationally. Drawn from the 2021 Census.

How the headline share is counted. 1.5% is 195 residents as a share of all 13,238 of us. A further 1,037 did not state a language at all, and we do not count them as speaking one — counting every non-response as a non-English speaker would put this figure at 9.3%, which is a larger number and a weaker claim. Measured only across the residents who answered, the share is 1.6%. If you have seen a higher figure quoted for Cabonne, it is almost certainly one of those two.
Two further caveats we would rather state than bury. Summing suburbs omits residents not allocated to one — no usual address, migratory and unincorporated areas — so national totals sit a little under the ABS published figures; the Cabonne figures on this page are unaffected. And ranked language lists exclude ABS residual categories such as “Chinese, nfd”, which are not languages anyone can order a translation in; they remain inside the headline total.
