I had a very similar issue while living/working in SW Florida a few yrs ago..only anyone would've been totally justified in saying I lived in the hood lol. I definitely did
I dealt with a couple NC/NS bc of it as well. Even had 1 guy pull up in my driveway, only to leave bc he was "too frightened" to get out of the car. lmao it wasn't that bad!! And after I assured him he wasn't getting a bait & switch, he came back apologizing profusely-and I saw him several times after that. Don't judge a book by its less-than-awesome neighborhood
Also, I had to deal with wayyy less NC/NS games after a client mentioned the "location issue" in a review, while also stating that it was nothing to be worried by, a great time was still to be had, etc, etc...
Maybe ask one of the next guys you see for a review that mentions something similar??
Stay safe! xx
