Uber and Lyft in Hudson, NY
Yes, Uber and Lyft both work in Hudson, but drivers are scarce, so a ride isn't guaranteed. You may wait a long time or find no car at all, most often late at night, early in the morning, and when an Amtrak train pulls in. Uber's own Hudson page notes that pickup times can be longer than in bigger cities.
