Musk Vale · Suburb / Locality
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant language for daily life in Musk Vale, where only 3.5% of people speak another tongue at home. This is far below the figures for Victoria and Australia, making it a very linguistically uniform area.
English and the largest community languages.
Around 88.2% of residents speak only English, which helps explain why no one in the area speaks little or no English. While this lack of English-language struggle is well below the state and national figures, a small number of people use Greek at home.
