Language in Bloomsbury
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant language spoken in Bloomsbury, where only 2.2% of people use a different language at home. This makes it far less linguistically diverse than most other areas across Queensland and the rest of Australia.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Almost everyone here speaks only English, with 86.6% of residents using it exclusively. The 2.2% who speak another language at home is far below the national figure of 22.3%, and no one in the area speaks little or no English.
