A genuinely more favorable crime signal

Caribou's violent crime rate runs approximately 1 per 1,000 residents (well below the national average), with a property crime rate of approximately 7 per 1,000 (about average) -- genuinely more favorable than several of this cohort's other markets (base record).

A real, broad-service-line local hospital anchor

Cary Medical Center, a 65-bed hospital, offers a genuinely broad service line -- emergency, surgical, maternity, pediatric, oncology, cardiopulmonary, and orthopedic services -- and carries an Outstanding Patient Experience Award recognition (base record).

A real, disclosed data gap on the combined overall crime rate

This pass did not find a single, cross-corroborated combined overall crime-rate figure it trusts enough to cite standalone -- a real, disclosed gap this record discloses honestly (base record).
