How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
Most people in postcode 2666 rely on their own cars, with 65% of workers driving themselves to work. This car-dependent trend is reinforced by a very low number of public transport options compared to the rest of the state. The area is largely non-residential across its huge own landmass, making private vehicles essential for daily travel.
