I’m very surprised by these household incomes where are these people living?

I’ve lived here for most of my adult life and never felt like I needed a car.
Having one is a huge pain. Parking. Insurance. Gas. Maintenance. Getting home when you’re drunk.
It’s easier to just get on the train.
I’d like if transit was cheaper and more reliable outside the city. Visiting family in the suburbs via transit is slower and more expensive.

Shockingly, residents of a city with extensive, reliable, and affordable public transit, choose to use it.

Except the people in Queens for some reason.

In Queens and Staten Island there is substantially more parking available for free, they’re neighbourhoods with more standard American detached homes and driveways.
In NYC itself, owning a car is pointless as you can get anywhere faster by either walking, cycling or metro, and you won’t need to play the “drive around for an hour game” to find a parking spot.

While I’m certainly in favour of transit, I think this shows the opposite: households with the money for a vehicle have a vehicle; households without do not.
