Learn moreA real, substantial in-city hospital
Baptist Health Madisonville, a real, large 410-bed hospital (built in the 1970s as the Regional Medical Center and Trover Clinic), is headquartered in-city -- a genuinely significant local healthcare anchor, distinct from suburbs elsewhere in this project that rely entirely on a broader metro network.
A real, mixed crime picture
Madisonville's overall crime rate ran approximately 7 per 1,000 residents (near the national average), but ran lower than only about 29% of Kentucky's own communities by one comparison -- even as it ran noticeably lower than similarly-sized US cities by a separate comparison. This record discloses both framings honestly.
