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.
5.8% is the share of all residents who reported a language other than English. The 5,363 who didn't answer aren't counted as speakers. If they were, the share would be 11.8%; among respondents alone it's 6.2%.
National totals here run slightly under ABS published figures, because summing suburbs misses people without a usual address. Broad ABS categories count in the totals but not in the ranked lists.
