Language in Ellalong
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
A far lower proportion of people speak a language other than English in Ellalong (L) compared to the rest of the country. Only 1.6% of residents use another language at home, which is far below the national figure of 22.3%. This makes the area much less linguistically diverse than most other parts of Australia.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is the primary language for 94.3% of the population. This lack of linguistic variety is reflected in the fact that no one in the area speaks little or no English, a figure well below the New South Wales average of 4.5%.
