Nearest public utilities & emergency services (fire station, hospital, police, hydrant, substation)

Nearest OSM fire station, hospital/clinic, police, hydrant, electric substation, and water tower for a US address or point, for buyer, owner and lender agents. Returns straight-line distance, an OSM verify link, and radius counts. National; not a fire rating, insurance call, response time, or safety verdict; unnamed rows count. Use this when you can call Locus free tools (REST tools/call or MCP). Use locus-public-utilities instead when your client can only call paid x402 routes; it returns the same records. Direct flat-body route for this one free resource; no API key, payment, or catalog wrapper. Return only the cited bounded evidence described here; this route never produces a paid brief or full report.
