Black River · Urban Centre
How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
Zero homes without a car marks the stark difference in transport for Black River (L) compared to the rest of the country. This is a car-dependent area where every single household owns at least one vehicle, making it far more reliant on private transport than typical Queensland or Australian suburbs.
Motor vehicles per home, and homes with no car.
Almost 44% of homes have two vehicles, and 16.7% own four or more. This high level of ownership is a significant shift from 2011, when 12.1% of households had no motor vehicle.
