How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.
A striking 23.9% of households in Wyndham have no motor vehicle, a figure that has climbed sharply since 2011. This makes the town far more likely to be vehicle-free than most other areas in Western Australia and across the country. Most people still rely on cars, but a significant minority live without one.

Nearly a quarter of homes have no car, which is far above the state figure of 5.0%. For those who do own vehicles, the most common setup is a single car, found in 39.9% of homes, while 28.6% have two.
