- The larger figure is each suburb's share speaking a language other than English; the smaller is people. 9 suburbs listed.
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.
How the headline share is counted: 3.7% is residents who named a language other than English, as a share of everyone. Another 752 didn't answer the question. Counting them as speaking another language would give 11.1%; leaving them out of the population altogether gives 4.0%. Higher figures quoted elsewhere usually come from one of those.
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.
