Language in Eden
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
A gap of over 23 percentage points separates Eden from the New South Wales average for people using another language at home. English is the dominant tongue here, with only 3.2% of residents speaking a different language, making it far less linguistically diverse than the state or the rest of Australia.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is used by 87.7% of the population, which is far below the national figure for non-English speakers. While 0.4% of people speak little or no English, this is actually higher than most similar areas despite being well below the state average.
