Amherst · Suburb / Locality
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Zero per cent of people in Amherst use a language other than English at home. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than most of Victoria and the rest of Australia.
English and the largest community languages.
English is the only language spoken in 79.4% of homes. The proportion of people using another language at home is far below the national figure of 22.3%, and the number of people who speak little or no English is well below the Victorian average.
