ABS Census of Population and Housing, 2021: language used at home, by Statistical Area Level 2, rolled up to Local Government Area. Change is measured from 2016.
A note on method: 55 residents didn't state a language, and this page doesn't count them as speaking one. That's why 2.2% sits below the 7.8% you'd get by counting every blank, and below 2.4% measured across respondents only.
People with no usual address fall outside any suburb, which is why the national figure here is a fraction under the ABS one. The council figures aren't affected.
