Language in Sarsfield
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English remains the dominant language in Sarsfield, with very little change in the linguistic makeup since 2011. Almost everyone here speaks only English at home, making it far less linguistically diverse than the rest of the state.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 2.6% of residents use another language at home, which is far below the Victorian figure of 27.6%. However, the 1.1% who speak little or no English is much higher than in most similar areas.
