Hospital and College Areas

 
Fri, 12/27/2013 - 11:18pm

Hello everyone. I'm sorry if this has been discussed before, but do any of the newer Garmin units display a different color for hospital or university/college areas? I have a 3760T and the map only differentiates areas such as airports/military/reservations (other than city limits and parks of course). I'm really in the market for a 3597LMTHD, but I don't know if the last generation of units has any more detail for land use.
Thanks!

My 3597 does display colleges and hospitals with colors distinctive from the surrounding areas. The names of the college and the hospitals are also identified at ~200ft scale, while on a route or not.
