Which suburbs of Coolamon have the most speakers of other languages?

Figures come from the ABS Census of Population and Housing 2021 (language used at home), aggregated from Statistical Area Level 2 to Local Government Area, with 2016 for comparison.

Other sources sometimes quote 6.7% for Coolamon. That figure treats the 261 unanswered forms as another language. This page uses 0.7%, and 0.8% is the share among those who answered.

Language lists name languages only; residual ABS groups are in the totals. Summed-suburb national totals run a little low.
