How to react when a woman looks at you but you are neutral?

Kind of an awkward thing that I face almost everyday. Some girls in my college and my neighbourhood look at me and smile. But I am not interested in anything. It is not that I do not like them, but rather because I just want to avoid anything for now.

Right now, I just try my hardest to not look back, and keep doing what I was doing. But I think that looks kind of rude. What would be a better response? I mean I do not want to look repulsive but at the same time I do not want to flirt, or start a conversation etc. I just want to keep doing my thing without being rude.
