Very safe. As a Trucker, I prefer Rest stops over Truck stops. Quite, safer, and less traffic. Plus State police patrol these areas. Also most have cameras .
It is very well lit with a fair amount of traffic any time I have been there.
There are many Rest Areas along the way..Any are about as safe as the rest.......Not sure on National statistics of what the incident reports of crime at Rest Areas are? Typically speaking it is the open road and that means that, for the most part you are away from areas of highly concentrated crime...As those are mostly in densely populated urban areas..
Very safe right off the highway and state troopers patrol thru there constantly and they have attendants who work there it's watched I've never had a problem there when I stop usually once a week I take a break there for year's.
