Language in Beachmere
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the dominant tongue in Beachmere, where 92.4% of residents speak only this language at home. This makes the area far less linguistically diverse than the rest of Queensland and Australia. These figures have remained steady over the last decade.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
Just 3.1% of people use a language other than English at home, which is far below the national figure of 22.3%. Very few residents struggle with English, and the 0.3% who speak little or no English is well below the Australian average.
