Language in Harrisville
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary way people communicate in Harrisville, with 95.4% of the community speaking it only. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than the rest of the country, as very few residents use another language at home.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 1.6% of people use a language other than English at home, a figure far below the national rate of 22.3%. While this is much lower than most areas, a tiny fraction of the population speaks Mandarin, and no one in the community reports speaking little or no English.
