Language in 2048, NSW
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Nearly one in five people in postcode 2048 use a language other than English at home. This creates a diverse local environment, though the share of people speaking other languages is well below the national figure.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
While 19.2% of people use another language at home—which is much higher than most areas—this is well below the 22.3% national figure. Most residents speak only English (76.7%), followed by Greek, Italian, Mandarin and Vietnamese. Only 2.7% of people speak little or no English, a figure that has barely changed since 2016.
