Transport & Vehicles in Marchmont
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
A striking lack of car-free homes sets Marchmont apart from the rest of the country. Every single household here owns at least one motor vehicle, which is well below the national and state figures for those without a car. This heavy reliance on private vehicles is reflected in how locals travel for work.
