The majority of Bostonites who own cars live in triple-deckers in 200-300-year-old neighborhoods on tiny twisty one-way streets. There are garages, but they tend not to be near housing, and the ones with charging stations tend to be rather pricey to house your car in every day.
- Retric 10y agoSure, a low density neighborhood can have street level parking. But, scaling charging stations over a few decades if electric cars continue to be popular is not a major issue. It's a basic supply and demand question, and the basic economics is a low up front fee vs a small income stream. I mean in city parking spaces can sell for over 100k or rent for several hundred a month. Adding a few k on top of that is just not a big deal. PS: Supose a parking space cost an extra 2$ per day, how often would it be used by electric or even non electric cars.
