It helps to understand mobility patterns, access to transportation, and potential reliance on private vehicles for daily activities.
Cars per Household Crunch
The Census indicates that 40% of households in PE11 1BB do not have a car or van, either owned, leased, or rented. This compares to 23.5 percent of homes across England and Wales without vehicles.
A higher percentage of car-free households often reflects an urban area with good public transport, making car ownership less necessary. It can also indicate lower-income levels, where residents may not afford vehicles, or areas with limited parking. Student populations, young professionals, and elderly residents in PE11 1BB are more likely to rely on public transport, cycling, or walking, leading to fewer cars compared to the national average.
