But how much have you taken the train after 9 pm in the last few years? Because in my experience, the train gets really sketchy later at night.

I'd agree with this though I think it only feels sketchy as opposed to is sketchy. For example a fight between drunk homeless people on the train feels dangerous and the random drunk mentally ill person shouting about how you need to be saved or your going to hell feels dangerous however most of these people won't harm you.
For a person who isn't drunk and paying attention to their surroundings it isn't dangerous despite how it might feel. That said I am a big white guy not a 100lb women so that perception is likely not a universal experience.
