If you are one of the 1.4 million Americans who bought an electric car last year, odds are that you live in (and own) a single-family home with a garage. According to one study, homeowners are three times more likely than renters to own an electric vehicle; another analysis of California EV drivers found that 80 percent live in single-family, detached homes.
There’s a reason: Electric cars are most convenient when drivers can charge them overnight - either on a standard outlet or using faster, “Level 2” home charging. “The pivot is definitely among single-family homeowners,” said Ingrid Malmgren, policy director at the EV advocacy group Plug In America. “If you don’t have access to a home charger, it makes a huge difference.”
But there are options for those living in apartment buildings or without a garage. Here’s how you can still go electric if you don’t live in a single-family home.
none of these options would work for most people in the US unlesss you are the HOA type
slumlords of the US barely do what they are supposed to keep up properties as it is if at all such as bug control (which involves a trip to Lowes for bug bombs which disperses insects all over the rest of the neighborhood) and tree control and everything really
whoever wrote this has never had to pay an licensed electrician’s bill
who is going to have the extra funds for some street charging
mostly in bigger cities only (looks great zoomed out but) and have you parked in a big city before just sitting there waiting? cops love to knock on windows would not catch me waiting for hours for a charge

think Captain Planet’s message is on point but we need alternatives for everyone not just those who can afford to be environmentally friendly
