Transport & Vehicles in Spring Hill
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
A massive gap in public transport frequency separates Spring Hill from the rest of the state, where weekly departures per 1,000 people are far above the New South Wales figure. Despite these high service levels, the area is heavily reliant on private cars for travel. This creates a unique mix of high accessibility and high vehicle ownership.
Vehicles
Motor vehicles per home, and homes with no car.
Every single home in Spring Hill has at least one motor vehicle, which is well below the New South Wales and national figures. More than half of all households keep two vehicles, and another 20% have four or more.
