Most bus stops here don't even have shade cover, city hall treats bus riders as 2nd class citizens. Nobody feels safe on the metro.
I agree that bus riders are treated as 2nd class citizens. I don't know about not feeling safe taking the metro. There's been some issues, but I usually take the metro and feel safe. Worst that I have seen are people with mental illness yelling (not even at people, just yelling at imaginary people). Things could be better, but Metro I don't think has the tools to address the root cause of the issues with taking metro: expensive housing and lack of sufficient medical assistance to treat the mentally ill.
Some people don't feel safe around the poors
I don't feel safe when people have psychotic breaks next to me, threatening repeatedly to kill me while rocking back and forth so violently that I can feel my seat shake. Idk, maybe that's just me.
