Muchea · Suburb / Locality
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
A huge gap exists between Muchea and the rest of the country, with only 3.3% of people using a language other than English at home. This is far below both the state and national figures. The area is overwhelmingly English-speaking, which is reflected in the very low number of residents who speak little or no English.
English and the largest community languages.
English is the only language for 90.3% of residents, meaning Muchea is far less linguistically diverse than Western Australia and the nation. While 0.3% of people speak little or no English, this is actually higher than most similar areas.
