Language in Monto
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
A huge gap exists between Monto and the rest of the country, with far fewer people using a language other than English at home. Only 3.5% of the population speaks another language, which is well below the Queensland and national figures.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
While the use of other languages rose slightly since 2011 to 3.5%, the vast majority of residents speak only English. This is reflected in the fact that no one in the area reports speaking little or no English.
