Isn't it a stereotype that poor people are the ones taking the bus/train?

It’s the stereotype, not the reality. Check out the housing prices near frequently-served bus stops in your local city.

Rich and poor do both. Poor people have longer trips on BOTH transit and cars.

Depends on the city. You can't really do it in Atlanta unless you can afford to live near a stop.
