Language access
Residents age 5 and over who speak English less than “very well”. Agencies receiving federal funds must provide meaningful access for them; this is the population the obligation covers.
Residents 5+ with limited English
| Spanish speakers | 6,047 | 4.9% |
|---|---|---|
| Other languages | 1,575 | 1.3% |
| Speak only English, or English very well | 116,727 | 93.9% |
Spanish accounts for 79% of limited-English residents, so Spanish-language service is most of the obligation.
