Language in Orange Surrounds
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.

Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Just 2% of residents use another language at home, which is far below the New South Wales figure of 26.6%. This is reflected in the very low 0.2% of people who speak little or no English, well below the national figure of 3.4%.
