Union County, NC has 7 taxi and limousine businesses in the 2023 County Business Patterns, employing about 9 people — 3 in taxi and ridesharing services and 4 in limousine service.
The published operator base here is very small, so a single new entrant materially changes the local market.
100.0 per cent of operators in Union County, NC employ fewer than five people, against a median of 67.1 per cent across the 348 published county markets.
Nearly every operator here employs fewer than five people. That is an owner-driver market: the person taking the booking is often the person driving, so software that needs a dedicated dispatcher to sit in front of it does not fit.
Union County, NC has 2.66 taxi and limousine businesses per 100,000 residents, against a national median of 2.16.
Operators per head are close to the national midpoint for a published county market.
Within North Carolina the median is 1.28 per 100,000, so this county is denser than its state norm.
Annual payroll works out at about $40,667 per employee across the sector in Union County, NC.
That level of payroll means labour, not vehicles, is the dominant cost — so utilisation per paid hour is the number worth managing.
