Clunes · Urban Centre
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the overwhelming primary language for residents in Clunes, where nearly 89% of people speak only English at home. While the use of other languages has risen slightly to 4.8%, the area remains far less linguistically diverse than the rest of the state and the country.
English and the largest community languages.
Only 4.8% of people use a language other than English at home, which is higher than most similar areas but still far below the national figure of 22.3%. This is reflected in the fact that no one in the area speaks little or no English, a figure well below the Australian average.
