Uber drivers in
Indiana
can expect to earn an average of $35,000 per year. The wage you earn as an Uber driver depends on many factors:
  • Location: Urban areas typically pay better than rural
  • Time of day: Rush hour and just after “last call” in areas with nightlife
  • Type of vehicle: Uber Black and UberXL vehicles earn more than standard sedans
  • How often you drive: The more you drive, the more you earn
If you already work as a bartender, you might miss out on the lucrative bar-hopping crowd since you’ll still be at work. Another strategy could be to target commuters, airport travelers, or to sign up for Uber Delivery.
Ultimately, it’s important to consider your overall financial plan. Your wage as an Uber driver in Indiana is not your actual take-home pay. As a gig worker, you’ll have to pay for fuel, vehicle maintenance costs, your own
personal car insurance
, and taxes. Will you need a car loan to become an Uber driver? Your final salary might be far less than $35,000 once you account for expenses.
