the gap doesn’t seem massive, couldn’t this just be importance of owning a car by “stage of life?” obviously people with kids, jobs, no knees etc… need cars more than uni students.
Things just cost a lot more nowadays, and if you’re young it’s unlikely you’re earning much. Hell, it’s also possible that their parents missed the boat on salaries rivalling house prices.

Or, just affordability?

Honestly geography seems to be the most important factor, rather than generation.
Is it really the geography, or is it availability/proximity to public transit?
Both are the same answer. I live in a place where you can’t live without access to a car.
Come to Cleveland. We have buses, and rapids, and sports, and PLEASE COME TO CLEVELAND!!! Our population is shrinking so much…
You have said much better what I was lazily leaving to inference. Yes, it is access to public transit.
