Language in Mortlake
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.

Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
About 90.6% of people speak only English at home. While the town is far less diverse than Victoria, it actually has a higher share of people who speak little or no English than most similar areas.
