Golf Courses in the Other
The Other accounts for 21 named golf courses across 5 states in the directory. Regional grouping provides a method to compare states on the same scale and assess the density of named courses using the federal USGS GNIS gazetteer as a reference source.
This regional organization is based on geography rather than quality or course classification. The GNIS database does not include designations for public or private status, course fees, or layout details, so the grouping reflects location only rather than course characteristics. Each state within the region maintains its own full directory for detailed information.
