Transport & Vehicles in Carpendeit
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
A total reliance on private cars defines travel in Carpendeit, where not a single home is without a motor vehicle. This makes it far more car-dependent than the typical Victorian home, with a small number of residents choosing to walk or work from home.
Vehicles
Motor vehicles per home, and homes with no car.
Every single home in the area has at least one car. Most households own two vehicles, and nearly 23% have four or more, which is well below the Victorian and national figures for homes without a vehicle.
