Transport & Vehicles in Sexton
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
A total lack of households without a car marks the gap between Sexton and the rest of the country. Every single home in the area owns at least one motor vehicle, reflecting a heavy reliance on private transport in this rural setting.
Vehicles
Motor vehicles per home, and homes with no car.
Every household here owns a car, which is well below the figures for Queensland and Australia. Roughly a quarter of homes have four or more vehicles, while others typically keep between one and three.
Motor vehicles per home

Getting to work
How people travel to work.
