Language in Goulburn Surrounds
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English remains the dominant language in Goulburn Surrounds, with the proportion of people using other languages barely changing since 2016. Only 3.5% of residents use a language other than English at home, which is a very small amount compared to the rest of the country.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Just 3.5% of people use another language at home, a figure far below the national 22.3% and the New South Wales 26.6%. This is consistent with the fact that very few residents, only 0.3%, speak little or no English.
