Palmwoods · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
Language in Palmwoods
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English remains the dominant tongue in Palmwoods, with the proportion of people using another language at home barely changing from 3.4% in 2011 to 4.1% in 2021. This makes it a far less linguistically diverse area than most of Australia.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 4.1% of residents use a language other than English at home, which is far below the national figure of 22.3%. Because of this, the share of people who speak little or no English is very low at just 0.2%.
