I will be staying in Torrance, LA for about a month. I would like to go sightseeing on weekends and when I have free time, I would like to use public transportation when it is light and Uber or Lyft when it gets dark.
I would like to know if there are any subway or bus lines that I should not take even during the daytime.

↑ Very helpful info. If I may add,
dress in jeans, t-shirts, and hoodies. If you want to go out in style,
take an Uber or cab. Also, if you use a slanted bag, make sure that the bag part does not go around your back.

Right. Sneakers, jeans, and a sweatshirt or hoodie. Plus a backpack on your back so students can see you and be safe. Not something fashionable, like Jansport, which is what students here use to get to school. Regardless of your age, it is easy to fit in with your surroundings on the bus or train.
Also, it can get quite cold in the evening, especially at night, so it is a good idea to have a jacket or something in your backpack for your return.

You could tell they were tourists by the atmosphere.

Let's think a little more positive and easy, Otoutou, who loves to brown-nose.
To reduce the risk, dress as inconspicuously as possible so that you can fit in with your surroundings. Even so, if people think you are a traveler and talk to you, you can talk and become friends. In the U.S., older people and people of the same sex often talk to you in a friendly manner. You should not follow them at once, though, even if they offer to show you around.
I have not seen pickpockets on public transportation yet, probably because there are not many people who are good with their hands here. I have not seen pickpockets on public transportation yet, probably because there are not so many people who are good with their hands here.
Don't dress up too much, wear sneakers or something light and student-like, and you should be able to greatly reduce the risk.

I once had an acquaintance whose backpack was quickly cut from behind with a sharp knife and the contents taken. I think it was on a crowded subway in New York City.
