I've been wondering about side hustles especially from being in the city, and what is still viable in 2026.

I've heard before from Uber drivers that they dont make enough like before due to the saturation of the hustle itself and the prices of Uber hiking up while their share/percentage decreases. Many of the Uber drivers who wre still operating work nearby airports where they're more likely to get customers even on off hours. However there's still uber driver's or plain taxi drivers who cut them out if business by parking closer to the exit of the airport where Uber drivers cant stand their vehicles at (since they have their own designated section).

I've also looked before into Amazon Flex. Working a single route to drop off either Amazon Fresh groceries or Amazon packages for $25/hour. It might be viable too but bioth this job and Uber require a car as well as the accompanying fees to manage and operate the vehicle.

What side hustles would you recommend in 2026 that are still viable for almost anyone to get into?
