Wealth vs wages? Cars require a substantial amount to buy, and then a decent liveable paycheck that leaves you something to play with for fuel and upkeep. Public transport is something more affordable for wage slaves.
I’m sure there’s a bit of geography going on here. I wouldn’t be surprised if Staten Island has far more cars than the other boroughs due to their having fewer public transportation options. I know Cuomo had more supporters there than other boroughs.
