Tenure, Income and Vehicle Ownership
Along with, income,
type of residence, and household size, the tenure of households is associated
with differences in vehicle ownership.
|
Observation |
Renters, at equivalent incomes own fewer vehicles
than owners. At each income level,
renting households own on average 0.4 fewer vehicles. |
|
|
|
|
Implication |
Minimum parking
requirements could
differentiate between ownership and rental housing, for example mandating
lower parking for apartments as compared to condominiums |
