Language in Claremont
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.

English is the sole language for 81.3% of the area, with Mandarin being the most common other tongue at 3.6%. Very few people struggle with English here, as only 1.4% speak little or no English, a figure that has barely changed since 2016.
