What people pay for an Uber still varies a lot by city.
At home in Ohio, Uber is more expensive than taxis in several cases, for example, to/from the airport, and short trips from the city center to the bars (2-3 miles). Taxis are also generally cheaper here for longer trips (maybe 30+ miles).
Similarly taxis can still be cheaper (and are still ubiquitous) in NYC.
