==Infrastructure== ===Transportation=== {{Main|Metropolitan Phoenix Freeways}} Gilbert is primarily served by one [[Roads and freeways in metropolitan Phoenix|area freeway]]—the Santan Freeway portion of [[Arizona State Route 202|Loop 202]]. A small section of the [[U.S. Route 60 in Arizona|US 60]] Superstition Freeway also skirts Gilbert's northern boundary at the Higley Road interchange (Exit 186). Several regional arterials also serve the area, including Williams Field Road, [[Chandler, Arizona|Chandler]] Boulevard, and Gilbert Road. The town is relatively close to [[Phoenix Mesa Gateway Airport]], in east [[Mesa, Arizona|Mesa]], and is a 25-minute drive from [[Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport]]. A [[Park and ride|park-and-ride]] facility is in downtown Gilbert for bus service. Although the facility borders the [[Union Pacific]] (formerly Southern Pacific) tracks and has provisions for commuter rail service, there is currently no such service. Bus service is limited in Gilbert, with some north–south routes in Mesa dead-ending at Baseline Road before entering Gilbert. Routes that serve portions of Gilbert include the 108-Elliot Road, 112-Country Club/Arizona Avenue, 136-Gilbert Road, 140-Ray Road, 156-Chandler Boulevard/Williams Field Road, 184-Power Road, and 531-Mesa/Gilbert Express, with most of these routes operating at 30-minute frequency on weekdays. Sunday service is only available on Routes 108, 112, 156, and 184. Most people get around by car or bike. Gilbert has a low proportion of households without cars. In 2015, 1.9% of Gilbert households lacked a car, and the figure was 1.7% in 2016. The national average in 2016 was 8.7%. Gilbert averaged 2.08 cars per household in 2016, compared to a national average of 1.8.<ref>{{Cite journal |date=December 9, 2014 |title=Car Ownership in U.S. Cities Data and Map |url=http://www.governing.com/gov-data/car-ownership-numbers-of-vehicles-by-city-map.html |journal=Governing |access-date=May 4, 2018}}</ref> In 2018 [[Waymo]] started testing in a small portion of Gilbert's northwest.<ref>{{Cite journal |title=Waymo Expanding Chandler Operations Ahead of Launch of Arizona Public Ride Service |url=https://www.azcentral.com/story/money/business/tech/2018/08/21/waymo-expands-arizona-footprint-chandler-before-ride-service-start/1046805002/ |journal=The Arizona Republic |access-date=January 7, 2019}}</ref> ===Health care=== * [[Mercy Gilbert Medical Center]] * [[Banner Gateway Medical Center]]<ref>https://www.bannerhealth.com/locations/gilbert/banner-gateway-medical-center?y_source=1_MTE5MDczNzUtNzE1LWxvY2F0aW9uLndlYnNpdGU%3D</ref> * [[East Valley ER & Hospital]]<ref>https://eastvalleyhospital.com/</ref>
