Language in Gregory
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary tongue for 83.8% of people in Gregory. This is a very linguistically uniform area where only 4.9% of residents use another language at home, a figure far below the national average.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Just 4.9% of people use a language other than English at home, which is much lower than most areas and barely changed since 2011. This is reflected in the fact that only 0.6% of the population speak little or no English, which is a little below the figures for Queensland and Australia.
