Clapham · Suburb / Locality
Language in Clapham
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the main language for 87.1% of people in Clapham. While this is much higher than in most similar areas, it means the suburb is far less linguistically diverse than the rest of Australia.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
About 11.3% of residents speak another language at home, which is much higher than in similar areas but well below the South Australian figure. Only 0.9% of people speak little or no English, a figure that is a little below the national average.
