Why do you associate public transit use and not owning a car with low income? I make $100k+ and I don't own a car; I commute to work every day on public transit (with two transfers on the return journey, something a lot of people say high earners won't do) and I use public transit to get around whenever possible.

So 92% of Seattle (the city, not the region, which is a weird way to look at Seattle transit, but sure) transit commuters are above the poverty line...?
That's literally all the data actually said. If your no-content comment was supposed to convey something else, I'm afraid it's lost on me.

you could try actually reading it.
If I made $100k, I'd move to a place where I didn't need my car any more. Good public transit is very convenient. Car maintenance is not.

My wife and I only have one car which basically only gets used on the weekends. Having good public transit makes a great difference for all income levels. All boats rise with the tide.
