Language in Mourilyan
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the main way people communicate in Mourilyan (L), though the use of other languages has grown recently. While 85.9% of residents speak only English, the number of people using another language at home rose to 6.4% by 2021.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
The share of people using another language at home is much higher than in most similar areas, though it remains far below the national figure. Punjabi and Italian are the most common non-English languages, and no one in the area reports speaking little or no English.
