Language in Wail
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for almost everyone in Wail, where 95.5% of residents speak only this language at home. While slightly more diverse than many similar areas, the town remains far less multilingual than the wider state and country.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
About 6.8% of people use a language other than English at home, which is higher than most similar areas but far below the Victorian figure of 27.6%. This is consistent with the fact that no one in the area speaks little or no English.
