Language in Queenstown
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English remains the dominant language in Queenstown, where the proportion of people speaking other languages has barely changed over the last decade. Only 3.6% of residents use a language other than English at home, a figure far below the national average.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is spoken exclusively by 88% of the population. While the number of people speaking another language is well below the state and national figures, the proportion of those who speak little or no English is actually higher than in most similar areas.
