Beaufort County, SC has 7 taxi and limousine businesses in the 2023 County Business Patterns, employing about 45 people — 4 in taxi and ridesharing services and 3 in limousine service.
The published operator base here is very small, so a single new entrant materially changes the local market.
42.9 per cent of operators in Beaufort County, SC employ fewer than five people, against a median of 67.1 per cent across the 348 published county markets.
A relatively small share of operators are micro-businesses, so the work is concentrated in larger fleets where controller workflow, account billing and reporting carry more weight than ease of setup.
Beaufort County, SC has 3.47 taxi and limousine businesses per 100,000 residents, against a national median of 2.16.
Operators per head sit above the national midpoint, so local demand supports more businesses than population alone would suggest.
Within South Carolina the median is 1.61 per 100,000, so this county is denser than its state norm.
Annual payroll works out at about $20,356 per employee across the sector in Beaufort County, SC.
A figure that low usually reflects heavy part-time and split-shift working rather than low hourly rates, which makes accurate shift and per-driver accounting the difference between knowing your margin and guessing it.
