If more wealthy people used public transportation, the percentage of shady people on public transportation would go down.

  "shadiness" has nothing to do with wealth. Beyond a point you can't really tell whether someone is wealthy by looking at them on the bus. You can tell whether or not they spend extravagantly on fancy clothes or accessories, but you have no way to know whether the person you're looking at is a millionaire who just believes in dressing casually. You could also be looking at someone who's been unemployed for two weeks and is looking their best because they have a job interview, so they look wealthier than they actually are. And none of that has much to do with whether a person will seem "dangerous" to the average transit rider.

    You are right. Sorry for my bad and disrespectful wording. My point was more about that if the percentage of people who currently use their car to get to work will go by public transportation instead, it will feel less unsafe, since there are many other people around.
