Transport & Vehicles in Piccadilly
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
Almost every home in Piccadilly relies on a car, as only 2.2% of households have no motor vehicle. This is well below the national figure, reflecting a lifestyle where private transport is essential for daily life. While the area has a high number of bus stops, the long travel time to the city makes driving the primary choice.
Vehicles
Motor vehicles per home, and homes with no car.
Most homes here have multiple cars, with 44.5% owning two and 17.5% owning four or more. This high level of vehicle ownership means far fewer homes are without a car compared to the South Australian average.
