Percentage of U.S. Population Speaking a Language Other Than English at Home Often, counties with a high percentage of people speaking a language other than English at home border counties with a much lower percentage of people speaking a language other than English at home. For example, more than 37% of Echols County, Georgia, speak a language other than English at home, while less than 1% of people in the neighboring Clinch County, Georgia, speak a language other than English at home. Please identify three other pairs of neighboring counties where the difference in the percentage of people speaking a language other than English at home is at least 20%, giving the name of each county and the percentage speaking a language other than English at home in each.
