In the city I live in there are perhaps a few more white uber drivers than there are for taxis, but not by much. Most of the Uber drivers I've gotten could easily have been taxi drivers if you were profiling them. Many uber drivers are also former or even current taxi drivers, as well. On another interesting axis like this, I do not believe I have ever had a female taxi driver, but I've had several female uber drivers. This discussion always suffers from anecdata problems, since each city's taxi regime tends to be different in a bunch of different ways, and the people who drive for uber and services like it are very much subject to local circumstance.
