Thanks Myrridin for the link. Unfortunately it is quite a quagmire.

Using ACS data, I could only find that in the Bronx, 57 percent of people use public transportation (including taxi cabs.) The data did not get more specific than that.
When searching for Boston, the tables only showed "excluding taxi cabs."

And as far as the National Household Travel Survey, they specifically wrote that they excluded taxi data in the Distribution of Workers by Commute Mode.

I questioned the data that many people hop in a taxi, because taxis are expensive! That's sure why I don't use them.
