Language in Maryborough
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for almost everyone in Maryborough, making it one of the least linguistically diverse areas in the region. Very few residents use a language other than English at home, a trend that has remained steady over the last decade.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 2.4% of people here use another language at home, which is far below the Queensland figure of 13.2%. This is reflected in the very low number of people who speak little or no English, at just 0.3%.
