Every figure leaves unanswered questions out of the count, so the areas compare like for like.
Every suburb here has a page of its own.
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.
The headline 1.6% counts only residents who named a language other than English. 87 people left the question blank; treat every blank as another language and the figure is 7.3%, while measuring only those who answered gives 1.7%.
Language lists name languages only; residual ABS groups are in the totals. Summed-suburb national totals run a little low.
