2527, NSW · Postcode
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant language for daily life in postcode 2527, where nearly 90% of people speak it exclusively. This creates a linguistic landscape that is far less diverse than both the state and national averages.
English and the largest community languages.
Only 6.4% of residents use a language other than English at home, a figure that is far below the 22.3% national average and has barely changed since 2011. This is reflected in the fact that very few people—just 0.7%—speak little or no English.
