2019 Car Usage

This is the 11th year I have tracked car usage, so I think it's safe to say this has become a habit. As has the nerdy tracking and graphing of it in Microsoft Excel. (You can check out 2018 here, 2017 here, 2016 here, 2015 here, 2014 here, 2013 here, 2012 here, 2011 here, 2010 here, and 2009 here.)

As before, the Philly totals represent, in order, number of trips, number of legs represented in those trips (i.e. going to and from my in-laws, making one stop to get gas, counts as three legs), and number of legs in which I was driven (rather than driving).
 
The other city totals represent, in order, number of times I was in that location, number of days I was in that location, number of trips, number of legs represented in those trips, and number of legs in which I was driven.

So my Philly total is 131 trips involving 400 legs, plus another 28 legs in which I was driven.  So that works out to about 11 car trips and 36 legs a month.  Not coincidentally, we're up to about 35,000 miles on our sole car, which we bought in April 2015.  So that works to about 7,500 miles a year, whereas it wouldn't be unusual for a two-parent suburban household to log twice that on each of their two primary cars.  As I've said before, city living is green living.
