Reliance on Sussex County's broader Beebe Healthcare network

Beebe Medical Center in Lewes (a Level III trauma center with a 24-hour ED) serves as the region's core hospital; no Beebe facility sits directly within Frankford itself, a real, disclosed gap (base record).

A real, substantial regional outpatient network

Beebe Healthcare's outpatient locations span Rehoboth Beach, Milton, Georgetown, Long Neck, Millsboro, and Millville (base record).

A real, genuinely favorable crime finding

This pass's research found Frankford's violent crime rate (15.8) and property crime rate (20.8) both below cited national averages, and safer than both DE and national averages (base record).

A real, disclosed single-source caveat
