Helping All New Yorkers
Move Around Their Communities

From Bayside to Brownsville, Uber is proud to help all New Yorkers move around their communities, especially in areas long ignored by yellow taxis and where access to public transit is limited.

Uber is helping to fill in gaps in public transit, ensuring that no matter where you live in New York City, you can always get an affordable and reliable ride in minutes.

"[Uber] gives safe transportation to people in communities where the cabs don’t stop, where the color of your skin prohibits you from access."

"Ridehailing services are a critical part of our transportation system, especially in communities outside of Manhattan where taxis don’t go. Since apps have launched in New York City, all New Yorkers can get an affordable ride – no matter where you live or what you look like."

"Not having a vehicle in Brooklyn has made me depend on Uber for all of my diligences when the MTA is not suitable or accessible. We use uberPOOL for everything – from simple shopping trips to important medical appointments. No matter what, Uber has always been there to deliver me and my family."
