Not necessarily. In cities people tend to be disparately located so usually ends up via public transport. In small towns the local pub can be a 30 minute walk away or a 30 minute taxi away depending on how many of them have closed down and the spread of the car-focused structure of some towns.

The petrol/gas inflation, plus the incursion of Uber, really screwed the prices of the taxis up as well.
