Travel demand, trip-making and geographic mobility were investigated for their relationships with family lifestyle (single-and two-parent families) among 305 families residing in the metropolitan Washington area. The results show that two-parent families have more transportation related choices and are more likely to own one or two cars than single-parent families. The two types of families show no significant differences in travel demand or use of carpools.
