Language in Albury
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant tongue in Albury, where only 8.5% of people use another language at home. This means the vast majority of daily life and local business is conducted in English, making it much less linguistically diverse than the state or national averages.

While 8.5% of residents use a language other than English, this is still far below the New South Wales figure of 26.6%. Punjabi is the most common non-English language at 1.2%, and only 0.7% of people speak little or no English.
