Kings Point · Urban Centre
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
Over 72% of workers in Kings Point drive themselves to work, reflecting a heavy reliance on cars for daily travel. Most households have multiple vehicles, and almost nobody uses public transport to get to their jobs. This makes the area much more dependent on private cars than the state or national averages.

Nearly half of all homes have two vehicles, and only 3.3% of households have no motor vehicle at all. This is well below the figures for New South Wales and Australia, although the number of car-free homes has risen slightly since 2011.
