Norwood at a glance

Weekday rhythm
Norwood is one of the few busy Bronx zones where a weekday beats Saturday: about 3,264 pickups on a weekday, 3,067 on a Saturday and 2,668 on a Sunday. Weekday pickups peak at 8 a.m. (about 229) and again at 4–5 p.m. (about 200). Saturday's peak is in the evening, at 7 p.m. (185), and 11 p.m. is almost as busy (174).
Arrivals are even more tied to the morning. On weekdays about 275 trips end here between 8 and 9 a.m., and 230 between 7 and 8 a.m., more than the number of trips starting here in the same hours.

Where trips go
The top destination is "Outside NYC" (10.1%), TLC zone 265, which the data does not break down. Then come Norwood itself (9.0%), Bedford Park (7.0%), Williamsbridge/Olinville (6.2%) and Van Cortlandt Village (4.7%). Bedford Park is also the biggest source of trips into Norwood after the zone itself (8.4% of drop-offs).
Fares and pay
The median app trip is 3.15 miles and 14.4 minutes, with a $16.41 fare and $14.53 driver pay (tips and tolls excluded). Both are 7th of 42 Bronx zones. Pay per engaged hour is $63.28; that counts only time with a rider in the car. App riders tipped 1.9% of the fare.
Yellow cabs made 8,036 pickups (about 22 a day), with a median trip of 8.2 miles and $34.50 on the meter. They dropped off about twice as often (16,875 times).
Pickup rules and curb notes
- Hails: all of the Bronx is in TLC's Hail Zone (Chapter 51). Yellow and green cabs may accept hails. App drivers need a booking for every pickup (80-19(c)(1)).
- Taxi stand sign: DOT's sign data (nfid-uabd) has a record on the east side of Jerome Avenue between East Mosholu Parkway South and North reading "NO STANDING ANYTIME TAXI STAND". The same record says it was superseded by a newer sign, so we cannot confirm a stand there today. If a stand is posted, FHV drivers must not pick up at it (80-19(d)(2), Chapter 80).
- Relief stands: none listed in zone 174. Nearby, DOT lists stands on Webster Avenue between East Fordham Road and Bedford Park Boulevard (in Belmont) and on West Kingsbridge Road (in Kingsbridge Heights). Rules for using them: relief stands.

Data on this page
Aggregates of public data. They describe trips and vehicles, never individual people.
Aggregated by TLC Help from TLC trip records, Sep 2025 – Aug 2026 (pickup date; TLC publishes trip files about two months after the month ends and may revise them). 'App' = high-volume for-hire services (Uber, Lyft). Taxi records with a negative fare (reversals) are excluded. Averages, medians and rates use 'clean' trips only: 1 minute to 4 hours, more than 0 and under 150 miles, fare above $0 and under $1,000. 'Fare' is the metered fare_amount for taxis and base_passenger_fare for app trips — before tolls, tips, taxes and surcharges — so it is not what the passenger paid in total. App driver_pay is TLC's 'total driver pay (not including tolls or tips and net of commission, surcharges, or taxes)'. Tips are separate. 'Per engaged hour' divides pay by passenger time only (pickup to drop-off). It leaves out time driving to pickups and waiting for requests, so real hourly earnings are lower; it is not the TLC minimum-pay formula. Monthly cells with 1–9 trips are shown as blank (null). Pairs with fewer than 10 trips are not listed.
