Milton · Urban Centre
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is spoken by 93.5% of people in Milton, making it a place with very little linguistic diversity. Only 2.1% of residents use a language other than English at home, a figure that is far below both the state and national averages.
English and the largest community languages.
The proportion of people using another language at home has barely changed since 2011. This lack of diversity is reflected in the very small number of people who speak little or no English, which at 0.4% is well below the national figure.
