Maraylya · Suburb / Locality
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant way of communicating for almost everyone in Maraylya. Only 6.6% of people use another language at home, meaning the area is far less linguistically diverse than the rest of New South Wales and Australia.
English and the largest community languages.
While 91.5% of the community speaks only English, the 6.6% who use other languages—such as Arabic and Italian—is higher than in most similar areas. This is consistent with a slightly higher than usual proportion of people who speak little or no English, though at 0.7% this remains well below the state figure.
