There have been studies done about "ghetto crime areas" what causes them in outer areas of a city.
Houston's "ghetto crimes" map is pretty much the same as the Metro map. Mass transit is how thug punks get around since most gang bangers do not own cars..

Are you really dumb enough to believe someone robs you or your house and goes to wait for a bus.
There are plenty of burgularies 'caught on cam'. The perps always have a car. Always.
This is just Metro hating BS.
If you dont want to ride the bus, fine, dont. But, dont hate on people who need to use public trans.
FWIW, most thefts happen in upscale neighborhoods where there is stuff worth stealing.
My gf had $100k stolen out of her house in a gated neighborhood by theives who arrived in a car.
No real theif robs close to home.
If you dont like to see poor people, fine, stay away. But, dont blame poor people for your prejudices.
