Interessante. Mi chiedo sia una cosa culturale o è solo che è necessario in alcune aree. (Non sono dalla Finlandia. Sono solo curioso)

I think it has to do with the areas that have a lot of land and not a whole lot of people.
Car enthusiasm is popular in Finland at the moment, and generally it is not rare for each parent in a family to have their own car. Helps with sheduling
I don’t know a single person without driving license, also I’m pretty sure everyone I know owned a car on some point, some who moved to Helsinki or some bigger city later on might have sold their car and use public transport. Also, it’s so damn cold sometimes that I would rather starve than walk to store
Finland is quite a large country in terms of sqaure kilometres and its not unusual for commute to be 100km. Even in the urban areas your commute might be 40-50km and this takes 20-30min by car or 1hr by bus. Thats why people choose to drive and own cars.
It’s a rural place, you need a car
You just need a car unless you live in Helsinki. I’ve lived in couple of the biggest cities in Finland without a car and I would say Helsinki is the only city here where not having a car is ok’ish. Living in Turku without a car started getting really annoying and inconvinient as lot of the bigger stores and sport venues exist quite far from the city center. Also visiting my parents with public transportation is a mess, even though they live only 30mins from Turku.
