The Guru Take
Changing Cities for Lyft
Lyft has historically allowed you to drive in multiple cities across state borders. There was nothing you had to do, and you would get ride requests wherever you are. We have heard of Lyft drivers doing cross country trips while working across several states.
However, this stance by Lyft has changed recently. They are now requesting drivers to notify them which cities you will be working in. This is due to state-level rules and requirements the drivers need to follow, such as the background checks.

Also, remember...
Lyft allowing it does not necessarily mean that your insurance will!
Also, remember that if you make income in other states, you may be responsible to file taxes for those states.
