How much do Uber drivers make in Tampa, Florida?
I’m looking to pick up a little extra income while my wife is out of work. I currently live in Tampa, which seems to be growing exponentially, so I’m thinking that Uber might be a good choice. But how much should I expect to make as an Uber driver in Tampa?
