TIL that NZ has the highest car ownership in the world.

There’s a few small tax havens that have worse per capita stats: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_countries_and_territories_by_motor_vehicles_per_capita

I misread the title and came in thinking it was about cats. I think we have a high proportion of those as well.
Solved it. Cats cause cars.
Same, was very surprised. Also there are almost zero to no cats in New Zealand, they are extremely protective of their native bird species.
Sorry to burst your bubble but New Zealand has one of the highest per capita rates of cat ownership in the world.
Also, only 6% of New Zealanders keep their cats inside and 30% of them are opposed to keeping cats inside.
Ironic because cars cause less cats
Me too! Was wondering when the cats would show up
We have many small cities with nothing between them, very little intercity rail services, and an easy source of cheap second hand cars. I’m surprised we are first but I would have put money on top 10.
I’d say it’s very similar in Poland. A lot of small cities and villages, barely connected by roads and with little to no rails. Public transport is good but only in big cities. In those smaller ones, you’re lucky if there’s more than on bus per line per hour.
This is my firsthand experience, as I’m from one of those. 15 years ago there was a bus every 15-20 minutes. Nowadays there’s one per hour, sometimes less.Even if you never traveled between cities the public transportation is dismal.
I’m honestly surprised that the US is in second, off the top of my head I only know one person that doesn’t own a car but her boyfriend has one that they share.
Probably NY,NY dragging the USA down as usual. /s
Latest data usa is first. We’re still second though, so not great
A win is a win. Embrace it.
Aaaaaaand, we’re still first on Everest.
