Language in Coolamon
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for 93.4% of people in Coolamon. This makes it a place where very few residents use another language at home, a trend that has only grown since 2011.

Just 1.5% of people use a language other than English at home, which is far below the national figure of 22.3%. This low rate is reflected in the fact that no one in the area speaks little or no English.
