Note correlation between population density, income and miles driven per person, this is pretty clear when looking at the wealthiest towns in MA (Dover and Weston, based on analysis of car values) and also the areas around Franklin Park in Boston (is this a lower income place, why is driving so low there? Is it just too terrible to drive around there?)
