Hurstville City is one of Australia's most culturally diverse local government areas and a large population of our residents identify with different cultural, language, religious and ethnic groups.
Hurstville City Council aims to build a diverse and harmonious City with a strong sense of community through community development services and social planning for people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
In 2006, 37 per cent of Hurstville City residents were born overseas with 85 per cent of these born in non-English speaking countries and 48 per cent speaking a language other than English at home.
Many of Hurstville City's multicultural residents come from China, Hong Kong, Greece, Macedonia, Italy, Lebanon, New Zealand, Indonesia, India, Malaysia, Spain and Philippines.
