Area: St George (Suburb / Locality)

Zero public transport trips to work highlight the total reliance on cars in St George. While most homes have at least one vehicle, the town is far more dependent on private transport than the national average. This lack of options makes the car the primary way people get around.

About 5.8% of homes have no motor vehicle, which is much higher than most similar areas. However, 36.2% of households have two vehicles, and another 25.5% have three or more.

No one uses public transport to get to work, a figure well below the national 3.1%. Most people drive, and only 10.7% work from home, which is far below the Australian figure of 21%.

There are no public transport stops or routes in the area. This puts St George far below the Queensland average for both the number of stops and weekly departures per 1,000 people.
