Is performing .ToList() more than once is a bad idea?

I've written the below function to query the SQLite DB in my Xamarin forms app. But, since I have to call .ToList() twice, I'm not very confident about it. Is this bad code? Any feedback will be highly appreciated.

public static List<string> GetAllLocationIds()
    {
        try
        {
            lock (CollisionLock)
            {
               //TableQuery<TResult> First .ToList() result
               //List<string> Second .ToList() result
                return Database.Table<Location>().ToList().Select(loc=>loc.LocationId).ToList();
            }
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Insights.Report(ex);
            return null;
        }
    }

Performing .Select directly on Database.Table<Location>() results in the following exception.`

System.MissingMethodException: Default constructor not found for type 
System.String at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceMono`
