Uber drivers in
Phoenix, Arizona
could make about $17 per hour on average.
As a busy urban center, Phoenix is full of people needing car share services like Uber and Lyft. Drivers in this city can expect to earn between $10 and $20 per hour, or about $40,000 per year before taxes.
It’s important to realize that, as a rideshare driver, you’re an independent contractor. This means that you are responsible for your expenses like fuel and regular maintenance. You must also pay taxes on your earnings, meaning your take-home pay will be substantially lower than the figures listed above.
Ultimately, your income as an Uber driver depends on many factors:
  • Where you drive
  • What time you drive
  • How many rides you are facilitating
Pro tip: You’ll earn the most if you can make yourself available during busy times, like the morning and evening commutes, 2 AM when the bar crowds are going home, and whenever flights come into the airport. It’ll take some research and trial-and-error, but this could be a good option to provide flexible income so you can care for your little ones.
