Non-English speakers - Proficiency in English
In 2016, no [Toggles].[COIIDDisplayLabel] speakers in the City of Melton reported difficulty speaking English.
Proficiency in English is an important indicator for the non-English speaking population. This may indicate the level to which translation services or communication in other languages is required for each culturally diverse community.
Typically, populations which migrated many years ago may have better English proficiency than recent migrants, and migrants from places where English is widely spoken may have higher proficiency levels as well. English Proficiency is a self-assessment by the respondent or their family, there is no objective review of this characteristic, so numbers should be treated as a guide only. To further build this story, English proficiency should be looked at in conjunction with Year of Arrival, Country of Birth and Age Structure.
