I'd like to see two things.

The demographics of people who live within a few miles of golf courses. Are they wealthier with better Healthcare, allowing them to live long enough to develop Alzheimer's?
Were pesticides used heavily in the golf courses surveyed?

As with all statistics, more data = context.

I think its mostly about the pesticide. I live across the street from a golf course and am by no means wealthy.
