I don't take the light rail very often if at all. That being said I have to say that when I have…read moretaken the light rail that I do not feel safe. There are many many homeless people and there are not enough security on the light rail. Phoenix is a relatively safe city but I cannot believe that there are not enough security patrol people for the light rail system. This needs to change. Now of course I have no issue with people who are homeless because I feel badly about that. But at the same time I have seen several physical altercations on the light rail between some of the homeless people that have become violent. That is why I feel that for a city like Phoenix That it is absolutely essential for more security on the light rail system.

Honestly, I had no ultimate destination and strictly wanted to sightsee. Having no idea what to expect, I chose the day pass at $4 and got on at this stop. Yes, they will check your ticket. Mine was scanned three times while I went to and from Phoenix. One girl gave an expired pass to the ticket gentleman (sorry I don't know his correct title) and all he said was "your ticket isn't valid, make sure you get a valid ticket". Well, that was nice. In the train in the trip into Phoenix, the windows were covered with some sort of dotted barrier, so we couldn't really see out. In the cart back into Tempe, we could see out with no problem, even when it started getting dark. I guess we lucked out. We met this super cool dude that showed us his video collection of train characters that he's encountered, including the window licker. Footage of a guy literally making out with his reflection. You can't make this stuff up. When we got to the end of the route the announcement indicated that it was time to exit, but we were in for the long haul and stayed on. So, don't pay attention to that announcement if you're site seeing too.

It's fun when you get on a train with lots of local fans that are excited for a big game. But as with most transportation systems, you get some characters that like to jump on for a free ride. I've definitely have had some interesting people watching moments over the years. Valley Metro Rail has 38 stops/'stations between Gilbert and Phoenix. I usually park at the Apache and 101 location because there is a large park-and-ride parking lot there. The light rail does have a stop at the airport that connects with Sky Harbor's Sky Train. But it sucks that you can't leave your car at a park-and-ride overnight. Because the light rail runs along the street and not above ground, many cars have run into trains over the years. As of 2023, Valley Metro charges $2 for one ride and $4 for an all-day pass. Security does occasional check for tickets. Valley Metro Rail has several extensions being planned and currently under construction to reach other parts of the Valley.

The Downtown Phoenix Hub is the transfer point between the A and B lines. The B line is the north-south line that opened in 2025. The hub itself is located on the block formed by Central Avenue, 1st Avenue, Jefferson Street and Washington Street. To jump from the A line to the B line and back, you have to get off the light rail train that you are riding on when it stops at this hub. Then walk across the street to the station of the other line that you are wanting to go on. The first time that I tried switching trains, I was so confused. But I eventually figured it out. Both CityScape and the Suns Arena are nearby. I don't ride the Valley Metro often. But I am glad that I have it as an option for transportation.
