Language in Ashford
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant language for almost everyone living in Ashford (L), where just 3% of people speak another language at home. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than the national figure. While the use of other languages has risen slightly since 2011, the community remains overwhelmingly English-speaking.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 3% of residents use a language other than English at home, which is far below the New South Wales figure of 26.6%. This is reflected in the breakdown, with 89% speaking only English, while a small number of people speak Italian or Hindi. Notably, no one in the area reports speaking little or no English.
