Language in Mirani
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.

Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is the sole language for 85.5% of residents, which is far below the national figure of 22.3% for other languages. This high level of English use is reflected in the fact that only 0.2% of people speak little or no English, a rate well below the Australian average.
