Part of that is chicken/egg or self-fulfilling. We would use Uber here if it was more affordable/available here - Uber would likely be more affordable/available here if more people used it. I'm not willing to pay the high prices hoping that they will come down - Uber drivers aren't willing to drive around the Villages hoping that they will get riders.

I often think I ought to start driving for Uber/Lyft here... then I remember I like being retired.
