Language in Drouin
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
A massive 22.3 percentage point gap separates Drouin from the national average in terms of language diversity. While 90.5% of residents speak only English, a small but growing number of people now use other languages at home.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Only 5.0% of people use a language other than English at home, which is far below the Victorian figure of 27.6%. Despite this, the number has risen since 2011, and Drouin has a higher proportion of non-English speakers and people with little or no English than most similar areas.
