A real, genuinely mixed crime signal

A 2024 City-Data-style overall crime index of 52 (cited as ~4.5x lower than the U.S. average) and a violent-crime rate well below the national average sit alongside that SAME source's own finding that Gilford's property-crime rate (13 per 1,000) runs above average (base record).

No hospital located within Gilford

Gilford has no hospital within town limits -- a real, disclosed gap. The nearest named hospitals are Concord Hospital - Laconia, Concord Hospital - Franklin, and Huggins Hospital in Wolfeboro (base record).

A real, local non-acute-care presence

Concord Hospital Occupational & Employee Health maintains a real, local location in Gilford, though it provides occupational/employment health services rather than acute hospital care (base record).
