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

    Except the people in Queens for some reason. It’s not even geographically isolated the way Staten Island is, I wonder what’s up with that.

    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. The richest New Yorkers will tend to live in newer buildings which have underground carparks and a space associated with them, or the option to rent one.
