They are everywhere in parts of Florida and Louisiana, though. When I was out walking the dog, I’d see them scurry across the street, or scamper into nearby bogs/lakes. You definitely have to watch out for them.
And all around it! If you can see water, gators can get there.
One night, a bug gator spotted us, ran away and just started tearing up a neighbor’s patio trying to hide. I kept thinking they would open the door and find it right there.
Do a lot of people die from alligators?
I wouldn’t think so, they aren’t as aggressive as crocodiles
Not many:

Rule of thumb in Florida: if you can’t see the bottom of a body of water, there’s a gator in there.

Generally only if you’re incredibly stupid. Small children you have to watch tho.
