How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
Just 1.6% of households in Exmouth have no motor vehicle, a figure that has plummeted from 34.4% in 2011. This makes the town far more dependent on cars than most other Australian areas. Most residents rely on their own vehicles to get around and get to work.
Motor vehicles per home, and homes with no car.
Car ownership is very high here, with nearly 40% of homes owning two vehicles and over 12% owning four or more. This high level of ownership is reflected in the fact that the number of homes without a car is well below the national figure.
