Bristol County, MA has 30 taxi and limousine businesses in the 2023 County Business Patterns, employing about 182 people — 11 in taxi and ridesharing services and 19 in limousine service.
A market of this size is big enough that customers have alternatives and small enough that reputation travels quickly.
56.7 per cent of operators in Bristol County, MA employ fewer than five people, against a median of 67.1 per cent across the 348 published county markets.
The market mixes very small operators with a tier of larger ones, so the same county contains businesses with genuinely different problems — coverage at the small end, coordination at the large.
The full distribution: 17 with 1-4 employees, 6 with 5-9 employees and 5 with 10-19 employees.
Bristol County, MA has 5.10 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 Massachusetts the median is 5.15 per 100,000, so this county is thinner than its state norm.
Annual payroll works out at about $26,500 per employee across the sector in Bristol County, MA.
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.
