Language in Mirboo North
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Just 3.6% of people in Mirboo North use a language other than English at home. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than the rest of Victoria and Australia. While this figure rose slightly since 2011, English remains the primary language for the vast majority of residents.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
About 90% of residents speak only English at home, with small numbers of people speaking Italian or Vietnamese. Only 0.5% of people speak little or no English, a figure that is well below the Victorian average but higher than in most similar areas.
