The graph below shows changes in the percentage of households with cars in one European country between 1971 and 2001

The bar chart gives information about the proportion of families with and without cars in a European nation between 1971 and 2001.
Overall, the number of households that owned a car increased over the period surveyed whilst a downward trend was seen in the percentage of no-car families.
In 1971, the number of families who could not own a car occupied the highest figure at 50%. While 35% of households owned one car, only over 15% of families could afford two or more cars.
However, the opposite state was seen in the following years. The number of no-car families fell dramatically whereas households with cars increased sharply. For example, until 2001, there were approximately 70% of households could own cars, including over 40% of families with one car and nearly 30% of households had more than 2 cars. Only 25% of families could not buy a car at that time.
