I don't know... Uber (et al) opened a lot of people to the "lets a hire a driver" mindset. Outside of some major urban centers, the idea of taking a cab was just weird. Uber came a long and suddenly people were taking them everywhere. Not just people who would have otherwise taken a cab, but people who otherwise would have driven themselves.
This is just anecdata from my observations and discussions with others who had similar observations. But it would be interesting to find real numbers on this.
- ghaff 9y agoMy experience is that outside of "major urban centers," Ubers are pretty thin on the ground. I live about 40 miles outside of Boston and the couple of times I've looked, there's been little or nothing available around me.
