Language in Elmore
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Only 3.5% of people in Elmore use a language other than English at home. This is far below the national figure of 22.3% and shows the area is much less linguistically diverse than most of Australia.

English and the largest community languages.
English is spoken by 85.3% of residents. While the proportion of people using another language rose slightly since 2011, the number of people who speak little or no English remains very low at 0.4%.
