Maybe you don't know the area, but Valencia is full of people going to work at 6:30am on commuter buses. Mission street, not so much. It is desolate and anyone waiting for a daily black car service for 20 minutes definitely stands out and may become a target. The two people that I know that get rides from their are female which sort of compounds the problem.
