Harry's summer

I am wondering why Harry must return to the Dursley's for the summer 
after OP.  Everyone knows Vold. is back.  I understand about the 
protection thing but can't Harry be harmed by someone other than 
Vold. while at the Dursley's?  Why subject him to the horrors of the 
Dursley's when he could just go to Ron's house and be protected by 
the order?  Didn't they say they would send for him soon anyway?

   Do I understand the protection thing right? 
  He has been allowed to leave the other summers and he does not 
have to return during the Winter break.  

Wouldn't he be safer and happier somewhere (anywhere) else?
