- Each percentage is the share of a suburb speaking a language other than English at home, over the number of people. 26 suburbs in all.
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: 2.8% is residents who named a language other than English, as a share of everyone. Another 1,386 didn't answer the question. Counting them as speaking another language would give 8.9%; leaving them out of the population altogether gives 2.9%. 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.
