Murray · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant language for nearly everyone in Murray, where only 4% of people use another language at home. This is far below the national figure of 22.3%, making it an area where very few residents rely on translation or non-English communication for daily life.
English and the largest community languages.
Only 4% of people here use a language other than English at home, which is much lower than most areas and has barely changed since 2011. This is consistent with the fact that just 0.3% of residents speak little or no English, a figure well below the Australian average.
