Solo trip soon and staying at BC...
How safe is it walking around the lake by yourself at night? Would you do it alone? ( female responses pls....I know men would prob be fine with it!)
I love it...and I also go out running around 5:30 every morning, when it is still dark. Plenty of Disney workers around!
I do it every visit . It is a nice break for me. I put the kids to bed and tell my husband, going out for mommy time.

Totally fine.
I used to park hop solo when I was 12 years old (I'm 41 now and at 12 I knew my way around better than most cast members).
There's 24 hour security and resort staff at the front desks of the resorts as well as some maintenance crews out. There are security gates at each resort so people can't even drive into the resort without having ID checked (and there are cameras watching the cars and everything else).
People can't just wander randomly into that area without going through some security booth somewhere. Consider it a gated community type setting.

In fact, I'm guessing it would be possible for somone without money to pay for that room to hang out at the boardwalk until closing, then spend some time walking around the lake. So I'm not sure I buy the gated community analogy.
OP, don't be afraid. But don't neglect to use common sense as well.
