Language in Shoreham
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
Only 1.9% of people in Shoreham use a language other than English at home. This is far below the national figure and shows the area is much less linguistically diverse than most others.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
English is the only language used by 92.4% of residents. This helps explain why no one in the area reports speaking little or no English, a figure well below the state and national averages.
