Transportation Costs on Google Maps

Abogo

Abogo can help you discover the average transportation costs for different addresses. You can use Abogo to discover the costs of where you live now, or where you would like to live. Abogo measures the money an average household in a neighborhood would spend getting around, including car ownership, car use, and transit use. 

To check a neighborhood's transportation costs with Abogo you just need to search for an address. Abogo then shows the address on a Google Map. A map marker (in the shape of a house) is placed over the address. If you click on the marker you can view the estimated monthly transportation cost at that address.

It is easy to compare the cost of your transportation to other areas as Abogo overlays a heat map on your results. You can therefore tell at a glance how your transportation costs compare to those living in other neighborhoods.
