Car and Van Availability
Car/Van Availability categorises households based on the number of cars or vans available to them. It typically includes options such as 'no cars or vans,' 'one car or van,' 'two cars or vans,' and so on. This table provides insights into household transportation resources, indicating car ownership levels within a given population. It helps to understand mobility patterns, access to transportation, and potential reliance on private vehicles for daily activities.
Cars per Household Crunch
According to Census data, 5.4% of households in OX29 8NR do not own, lease, or rent a car or van. This is compared to 23.5 percent of homes across England and Wales that are without vehicles.
A lower percentage of car-free households suggests a suburban or rural area where car ownership is necessary due to limited public transport options. These areas often have higher income levels, making vehicles more affordable, and larger households that rely on cars for commuting and daily activities. The lack of nearby amenities and reliance on personal transport in OX29 8NR may contribute to fewer car-free homes compared to the national average.
