Language in Wonga Park
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
A tiny 4.5% of people speak a language other than English at home, meaning Wonga Park is far less linguistically diverse than the rest of Victoria. Most residents speak only English, and the number of people using other languages has only risen slightly since 2011.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is the sole language for 92.7% of residents, leaving only 0.2% who speak little or no English, a figure well below the national average. While Mandarin and Italian are the most common other languages, they are spoken by less than 1% of the population.
