Westchester County, NY has 124 taxi and limousine businesses in the 2023 County Business Patterns, employing about 553 people — 51 in taxi and ridesharing services and 73 in limousine service.
An operator base this size supports real competition on service level, and account and contract work is usually where the defensible revenue sits.
80.6 per cent of operators in Westchester County, NY employ fewer than five people, against a median of 67.1 per cent across the 348 published county markets.
Most operators employ fewer than five people, so buying decisions are made by an owner rather than a committee, and setup time matters more than configurability.
The full distribution: 100 with 1-4 employees, 15 with 5-9 employees and 5 with 10-19 employees.
Westchester County, NY has 12.32 taxi and limousine businesses per 100,000 residents, against a national median of 2.16.
Operators per head are far above the national midpoint, which is typical of counties serving an airport, a downtown core or a large visitor economy rather than only their own residents.
Within New York the median is 5.96 per 100,000, so this county is denser than its state norm.
Annual payroll works out at about $47,486 per employee across the sector in Westchester County, NY.
That level of payroll means labour, not vehicles, is the dominant cost — so utilisation per paid hour is the number worth managing.
