Language in Riverside
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for almost everyone in Riverside, where very few people use a different tongue at home. Only 3.2% of residents speak another language, making it a place where English is overwhelmingly the norm for daily life.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Most residents speak only English (91.2%), which is far below the New South Wales figure of 26.6%. This is reflected in the fact that no one in the area speaks little or no English, well below the national figure of 3.4%.
