Redcliffe · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
Language in Redcliffe
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Only 6.7% of people in Redcliffe use a language other than English at home, a figure far below the national average. This makes the area much less linguistically diverse than most other parts of Australia. English remains the dominant language for the vast majority of residents.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is spoken by 87.2% of residents, with very few people speaking Mandarin (0.5%) or Italian (0.3%). This is reflected in the fact that only 0.9% of the population speak little or no English, a figure that has barely changed since 2016.
