Of course, there's police substation right on the edge of the Washington Park course in Indy.
Sugaw Creek is in the worst neighborhood of all the courses, but it really is not bad at all. Ironically, the most car break-ins happen at Reedy Creek which is in the nicest area of any of the courses. It is just that the parking lot is so secluded.

redan just outside atlanta has a rep as somewhere you don't want to leave valuables in the car.
I've heard reports of that myself, but I've played at Redan several times over the past year or so, and have never seen any problems. It's a nice park, and the surrounding area isn't all that bad. On the other hand, I always put away the valuables in my car so they're not visible from the outside, no matter where I park.
I used to play Redan a lot in the early 90s and back then it was way "out in the stix". We actually had a couple of courses that were closer, but we enjoyed getting out of town to the quiet setting of Redan. Looking at the course on this site, I was stunned to read about parking lot schenanigans and how different the course layout was.I've heard reports of that myself, but I've played at Redan several times over the past year or so, and have never seen any problems.

Bryan Park in Richmond may have problems late in the evening and night, but weekends or daytime I have NEVER encountered a single hard time or bad vibe in two years of playing there....for the record.
And most importantly and best of all, nobody has been killed there since that one guy.
When that big lady was peeing, I never once felt threatened by her in spite of her size advantage over me. I played there about a month ago and they've cut down a ton of trees by hole 6, so that shouldn't happen again as the pee-ers should be able to see you putting out now from the bridge...
this sentence should be added to the 'pros' section of your review, just for the LOLs.
i know it got me laughing.
Scariest course for me to date is Roosevelt Park in Albuquerque, NM. Upon approaching hole#1 I spoke with a guy who mentioned that there's drug activity there regularly and I might even see people having sex on the fairways. Not that there's anything dangerous about that – He said it was a city park 1st and a disc golf course 2nd. I believe it was the park that rapper MC Hammer was shot at.
Carver Recreational Center DGC in Chattanooga, TN. Bad area and got a lot of wierd looks from the locals while playing. Very uncomfortable feeling throughout.
Its tough to act like a drug related murder isn't a con for a course, but in all fairness to the park, I've played there hundreds of times and never once been murdered there myself, and I don't believe any of my friends have been murdered there, either.
I'd probably stop playing there if I got murdered there.
Probably.
