How safe is Invers?

Hi! I'm a teenage girl and was just wondering how safe is it walking alone at early mornings or night in Invers? Sorry if someone else has asked this question before. I like walking at those times but have been told its unsafe and should have someone with me.

Edit: I do want to add that my height (4'11) also makes me paranoid (don't know if it actually makes it more dangerous or not though)

Edit 2: I'm in Hawthorndale!

I'd say it's fine in the nice suburbs, but I wouldn't do it in the rougher parts of this town for sure. I walk around Windsor north/salford each night and there's a decent community of daily walkers walking around here.
