0, I don’t even own one because I don’t need one for my daily activities. I can get to work by PT, walk to the supermarket (with multiple options within walking distance of my home), I can also participate in social activities with my friends without having to drive there. And for the 2-4 occasions a year I actually need to go somewhere I can’t reach by other means (or I have to move something I can’t carry on my person) I just rent a car.
Being free from the burden of maintaining a car feels surprisingly liberating.
Especially after growing up in a place where our family had to have a separate car at home for both my father and mother so they could get to their workplaces after dropping us off to school (because there was no safe way for, us the kids to get to school on our from where we lived). It was actually a pretty big financial burden for my family to own two cars even though dad did all the maintenance on both of them.
