METRO Purple Line

I’m attending the University of Houston in the fall, and at the moment, it looks like I won’t have a car. With that said, I decided to get a METRO pass from the university.

The Purple Line has a stop adjacent to the campus, and it seems like a fairly convenient and cheap (compared to ride-sharing, at least) way to get to and from Downtown. However, I have heard very mixed things about the safety of the route, primarily because it passes through the Third Ward.

If anyone has experience with the Purple Line, how safe is it? Does the safety vary between day and night? Should I be concerned at all?

I plan on crossposting this to the UH subreddit.
