Grafton · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
Language in Grafton
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for 90.5% of residents in Grafton. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than the state and national averages, though the proportion of people using other languages rose slightly to 3.1% since 2011.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 3.1% of people use a language other than English at home, which is far below the New South Wales figure of 26.6%. This is reflected in the very low number of people who speak little or no English, at just 0.4%.
