# Transport & Vehicles — Rangeville

How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.

Area: Rangeville (Suburb / Locality)

A heavy reliance on cars defines daily life in Rangeville, where the typical home owns two vehicles. Most residents drive themselves to work, and very few use public transport or work from home compared to the national trend.

Almost 42% of homes have two vehicles, while only 3.9% of households are without a motor vehicle. This lack of cars is a little below the Queensland figure and well below the Australian average.

Car travel is the dominant way to get to work, with 70.2% of people driving. Only 8.8% of residents work from home, which is far below the national figure of 21%.

Public transport is provided entirely by buses, but the service is sparse. With only 51.7 weekly departures per 1,000 people, this is far below the Queensland figure of 720.7.

Getting around the area involves a significant time investment, as the drive time to the city is higher than most similar areas. The walk to the nearest transport stop takes around 18 minutes, which is about the middle for its level.
