I don't think they'll go far into a community, but if you're on water and unfenced, I'd take close watch of the pets and yourselves.
If a gator chases you, run in a zig-zag, they have trouble making turns.
You can't outrun 'em, they're as fast as racehorses.
Plan B is to trip your spouse and keep running LOLOLOLOL

Yes, they are fast, but they tire quickly. If you can stay ahead of them for the first 50 yards, you're pretty much home free (I know I've been chased when I was a young one). They can't climb trees worth a darn either.
