Sale · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
Language in Sale
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the main language for 87.5% of people in Sale. Very few residents use a foreign language at home, making the area far less linguistically diverse than the rest of Victoria and Australia.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 6.3% of people use a language other than English at home, which is far below the Victorian figure of 27.6%. This is mirrored by the fact that just 0.8% of residents speak little or no English, a figure that has barely changed since 2016.
