The same 10-mile, 20-minute trip in Chicago that runs $14.70 costs $63.50 in the Hamptons, $49.50 in New Orleans and $38 in Jersey, according to ChicagoInno. Uber has touted Chicago's lowest-in-the-country UberX fares, which it pegs at an average $9 per ride. Every market at Uber sets prices that best fits that market's needs, said Chris Taylor, general manager of Uber Chicago.
