Glenorchy · Suburb / Locality
Language in Glenorchy
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Almost everyone in Glenorchy speaks English in their daily lives, with only 2.3% of people using another language at home. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than the rest of Victoria and Australia.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is the sole language for 90.8% of residents. This explains why the share of people using other languages is far below the Victorian figure of 27.6%, and while the area has a higher proportion of people speaking little or no English than most similar areas, it is still well below the national average of 3.4%.
