How Many Taxi Cabs Does Las Vegas Have? You Won't Believe This! (But It's Not a Mirage)
Las Vegas, baby! The city of bright lights, endless buffets, and questionable life choices made after 2 am. But what happens when you need a reliable ride that doesn't involve questionable shoe choices and questionable dance moves (because let's face it, those heels ain't lasting all night)? That's where the trusty taxi cab comes in.
But here's the burning question: just how many taxi cabs are there zooming around this desert oasis?
According to the Nevada Taxicab Authority (the folks who know more about cabs than you probably ever will), there are approximately 3,250 valiant steeds (or should we say, sedans?) cruising the Las Vegas Valley. That's a heck of a lot of cabs, enough to whisk you away from a bad poker hand or a questionable impersonation of Britney Spears at karaoke (we've all been there).
QuickTip: The more attention, the more retention.
That's right, folks, 3,250 cabs! More taxis than showgirls, more taxis than Elvis impersonators (though that might be a close call). Basically, you're never that far from a set of wheels, no matter how late the night (or how questionable your decisions).
Now, buckle up, because we're about to delve into the fascinating world of Las Vegas taxi cabs:
