When was the last time you had an Uber driver that actually lived in San Francisco? Most of the drivers I talk to were driving in, from as far away as San Diego.
Yeah, it was extraordinarily far, which is why I remember the conversation. But he drove up to SF and slept in his car for the weekend because the trips were a lot more valuable here.

Me, my neighbor, my other neighbor, two guys down the block from me…
There are at least 3 people in my building that do it. I also know a handful of cabis that all live in the city.
Are you saying a driver commuted 8 hours north to drive for Uber? and then back when he was done?
Yeah that’s not a thing anymore and it hasn’t been lucrative to do that in quite some time.
Doubtful. I've done that car trip multiple times, it's a 7-9 hour drive.
