Language in Yeppoon
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant tongue in Yeppoon, where only 3.6% of people use another language at home. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than the rest of Australia, with very few residents needing translation services for daily life.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Nearly 90% of residents speak only English, a figure that is far below the national average of 22.3%. Consistent with this, the proportion of people who speak little or no English is very low at 0.3%, which is well below the 3.4% seen across Australia.
0.3% —
Higher than 54% of urban centre areas.
Share of people who use another language at home and speak English not well or not at all. No 2011 figure — that census only asked proficiency of overseas-born residents.
