Language in Dysart
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant tongue in Dysart, where very few people use a different language at home. Only 4.1% of residents speak another language, which is far below the national figure of 22.3%. This makes the area much less linguistically diverse than most of Australia.

English and the largest community languages.
English is spoken by 74.3% of people at home, while Tagalog and Punjabi are the next most common. Only 0.3% of residents speak little or no English, a figure that is higher than most areas despite being well below the Australian average of 3.4%.
