How even is Cranbrook from suburb to suburb?

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.

How the headline share is counted: 2.5% is residents who named a language other than English, as a share of everyone. Another 120 didn't answer the question. Counting them as speaking another language would give 13.6%; leaving them out of the population altogether gives 2.8%. Higher figures quoted elsewhere usually come from one of those.

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.
