Fraser · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
Language in Fraser
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant language for nearly 90% of people in Fraser, making it far less linguistically diverse than most of the territory. Very few residents need translation services, which keeps the area's language profile much simpler than the national average.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 8.5% of people use a language other than English at home, a figure far below the ACT's 24.6%. This is reflected in the fact that just 0.8% of residents speak little or no English, which is a little below the national figure.
