Transport & Vehicles in Clarendon
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
Nearly every household in Clarendon owns a motor vehicle, making it much more car-dependent than the state or national average. While there are many public transport stops and services available for the population size, almost no one uses them to commute to work.
Vehicles
Motor vehicles per home, and homes with no car.
Every single home here has at least one motor vehicle, which is well below the 9.2% of New South Wales households without one. Over a quarter of homes own four or more vehicles, and 31.4% have two.
