You're in the upper social status.

you are assuming that the 45% of households owning a car is evenly distributed across all income groups. i highly doubt that is the case, the more likely scenario being that this 45% distribution is heavily skewered toward the higher income group (i.e. the 20% living in private housing)

TLDR: Well done! You live in private housing which means you are probably within the top 20% of society
