The best transportation option for seniors depends on their needs—public transit is the most affordable but may not be the most convenient, while paratransit and ride-sharing services (like Uber, Lyft) offer greater flexibility but require advance booking or higher costs. Volunteer programs, senior shuttles, and Medicaid-funded Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) provide free or low-cost rides but may have limited availability.
