How to explain to a 9 year old girl that the world can be a dangerous place for a girl/woman?

My 9 year old recently has asked me if she could start walking to school by herself. I don’t think she’s ready yet as she’s not street smart. She asked me a lot of questions like why do I need to be street smart etc. How do you explain this to a 9 year old?
