Language in 2873, NSW
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant language for almost everyone living in postcode 2873. Very few residents speak a language other than English at home, making this area far less linguistically diverse than the rest of the state.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 2.1% of people use another language at home, which is far below the national figure of 22.3%. This is consistent with the fact that 87% of the population speak English only, and the 0.5% who speak little or no English is well below the New South Wales average.
