Is there anything better than saving a few bucks in this economy? We know the answer is no! That’s why we love sharing free activities, rewards, and affordable options whenever we find them. Micro is Metro’s new on-demand rideshare service, providing trips within several zones in LA County. Designed for short local rides, it uses small vehicles that can seat up to 10 passengers with a base fare of $2.50
In addition to its incredibly affordable price, one of the best things about Micro is that (for now) it’s not an extremely popular mode of transportation. Between the App Store and Google Play, it has only about 16 reviews, making it virtually one of the best-kept secrets in the city’s transportation system.
