Transport & Vehicles in Myrtlebank
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
A far greater reliance on private cars than the state average defines Myrtlebank, where no single household lacks a motor vehicle. This high level of car ownership is a necessity given the area's extreme distance from public transport and the city.
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 Victorian and national figures for carless households. Most homes have two vehicles (43.5%), and over a fifth have four or more.
Motor vehicles per home
View on map →In Myrtlebank, the largest group is 2 vehicles at 48%, followed by 4 or more (24%) and 1 vehicle (19%).
Getting to work
How people travel to work.
Nearly a quarter of workers (24.6%) work from home, which is well above the national figure. For those who do travel, almost everyone drives, as no one uses public transport to get to work.
