Language in Maitland
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Only 1.4% of people in Maitland use a language other than English at home, which is far below the national figure. This makes the area much less linguistically diverse than most other parts of the country.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is the only language spoken by 87.3% of the population. This means the area is far below the South Australian figure for language diversity, though it is slightly higher than most similar areas for people who speak little or no English.
