Healthcare & Safety in Maryville
Maryville has real in-city hospital access via Blount Memorial Hospital (304 beds), and -- unusually for this dataset -- its two major crime-data sources actually AGREE in direction: both CrimeGrade and NeighborhoodScout frame Maryville as safer than the Tennessee and national averages, even though their absolute per-1,000 figures differ substantially.

Blount Memorial Hospital, located in Maryville, is a 304-bed acute care hospital -- a real, sourced local healthcare anchor. A specific trauma-center-level designation was not independently confirmed this research pass, disclosed as a gap.
CrimeGrade's read: a genuinely favorable A- grade
CrimeGrade cites an overall crime rate of 21.34 per 1,000 in a typical year, but separately describes Maryville as running 48% BELOW the national average overall, with an A- overall safety grade as of 2026. Violent crime specifically is cited at 4.269 per 1,000; property crime at 8.377 per 1,000. Considering crime overall, CrimeGrade frames Maryville as safer than both the Tennessee state and national averages.
NeighborhoodScout's very different absolute number, same favorable direction
NeighborhoodScout cites an overall crime rate of just 7 per 1,000 -- a genuinely different ABSOLUTE figure than CrimeGrade's 21.34 per 1,000, reflecting different methodologies (the same kind of cross-source numerical disagreement documented for Bristol and Oak Ridge elsewhere in this build). But despite that numerical gap, NeighborhoodScout's own framing agrees with CrimeGrade's DIRECTION: both sources describe Maryville as safer than average.
A more consistently favorable cross-source signal than found elsewhere in this batch
Unlike Bristol (where NeighborhoodScout and CrimeGrade sent a genuinely mixed signal) or Oak Ridge (where NeighborhoodScout's own overall-vs-violent-crime framing contained internal tension), Maryville's two major sources agree with each other in direction, even while disagreeing sharply on the exact rate. This is a real, disclosed, more consistently favorable pattern -- though per site policy, no specific lower-rated area is named here; confirm any specific address directly.
Key takeaways
- Blount Memorial Hospital (304 beds) provides real in-city hospital access; a specific trauma designation was not confirmed this pass.
- CrimeGrade gives Maryville an A- overall safety grade, describing it as 48% below the national average on crime.
- NeighborhoodScout's absolute crime rate (7/1,000) differs sharply from CrimeGrade's (21.34/1,000) due to methodology, but both agree Maryville reads safer than the TN/national average.
- This cross-source directional agreement is more consistently favorable than found for Bristol or Oak Ridge elsewhere in this same East Tennessee build.
