Auchenflower · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
Language in Auchenflower
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
A gap of 7.7 percentage points separates the 14.5% of Auchenflower residents who speak another language at home from the national figure. While slightly more people use a non-English language here than in the Queensland average, the area remains far less linguistically diverse than Australia as a whole.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is the primary language for 82% of residents, with Mandarin at 1.9% being the most common other tongue. Only 1.3% of people speak little or no English, a figure that is about the same as the Queensland average and has barely changed since 2016.
