The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for 82.5% of people in Lindenow (L). While most residents speak only English, the proportion of people using another language at home has risen to 9.0%. This is much higher than in most similar areas, though it remains far below the figures for Victoria and Australia.
English and the largest community languages.
People using another language at home rose by 5.1 percentage points since 2011 to reach 9.0%. This shift is consistent with the number of people who speak little or no English, which rose from 0.4% in 2016 to 3.8% in 2021, a figure that is among the highest for similar areas.
