Language in Berrima
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for 85.5% of people in Berrima (L). While this is higher than the national figure, the area has seen a significant drop in the number of people using other languages at home over the last decade.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 5.9% of residents speak a language other than English at home, a figure that is far below the Australian average and has fallen 11 percentage points since 2011. This trend is reflected in the fact that no one in the area speaks little or no English.
