Where in Carnamah are other languages most common?

Each suburb links to its own page, with the languages spoken there.

Data: ABS Census of Population and Housing 2021, language used at home, summed from Statistical Area Level 2 to council. Changes are against the 2016 Census.

A note on method: 88 residents didn't state a language, and this page doesn't count them as speaking one. That's why 2.0% sits below the 18.3% you'd get by counting every blank, and below 2.4% measured across respondents only.

Two caveats: summing suburbs leaves out residents with no usual address, so national totals land a little under ABS published figures, and ranked lists leave out broad ABS categories that don't name a language.
