One of my friends in my college days explained it to me. They specifically choose poor people to feed off of, rarely ever high society, and that's how royalty and feudal lords would act back in the day too. Some of the IRL ruling class would even bathe in young women's blood.

And vampires are almost always rich in fiction.

And we all know how the rich treat the poor in real life.
