Try a different pool, or try a different day at that pool. That is, IF you enjoy being in a pool. Not everyone cares about pools but have the urge to go for a dip once in awhile.
I went to the pool at Sumter Landing, that tiny cluster of "cottages" when you take a right past the bridge and then another right. The first time I went, no one else was there and I had the pool to myself for a couple of hours. The second time I was "questioned" by a couple of ladies who were in there when I got there. We chit-chatted for a few minutes and then I continued on my swim. I think they were curious why someone who lives in the Historic Section would go all the way to Sumter Square to swim in a little pool. Basically the answer was "because I can." There really was no other reason. I thought it'd be fun to do it, and that's all. It's a nice little pool.
At the pool closest to where I live, at Hilltop, I've been "questioned" a few times. And it was obvious they were trying to make sure I was "authorized" to be there. I just told them "I live down on the other side of the Tower" and continued on my swim, basically ignoring them for the rest of the time I was in there.
