Transport & Vehicles in 2282, NSW
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
A very high number of public transport stops defines postcode 2282, though the area remains heavily reliant on cars. While it has more stops than most similar places, very few people actually use them to commute to work. This suggests a layout where transit is physically present but not the primary choice for travel.

Almost every home here owns a car, with only 3.2% of households without one. This is well below the national figure of 7.4% and has fallen since 2011. Most homes have two vehicles, while 13.8% have three.
