The short answer

A list you can actually act on

Instead of reading one state site at a time, search a point and get the registered sex offenders near it as full records — photo, offense, distance and the official registry link — across every US state, DC and the territories at once. Widen the radius for a school route, narrow it to your block, and set a standing alert so the list keeps working after the first look.

How it works

From an address to a list, in seconds

No account needed to see how it works — search a point, read the list, and decide how far around your family you want to look.

1 · Search an address or ZIP

Enter your home, a school, a relative’s place, or any address that matters to your family. The search works outward from that point rather than a whole postal area, so the list you get back is the neighbourhood you actually care about.

2 · Read the list, not just pins

Each registrant on the list comes back as a full record — photograph, offense and tier, distance, and a link to the official state registry entry — so you can recognise a face and verify any result at its source.

3 · Widen or narrow the radius

One mile is roughly a block or two; widen it to cover a walking route to school or a whole small town. You decide how far “near you” means for your own family.

4 · Turn the search into a standing watch

The list changes as people are added, move in, or are removed. An area monitor re-checks it for you and emails you when it changes near your address — so awareness is ongoing, not a one-time look.

For your family

Use the list for awareness, the right way

A list is most useful as part of a family safety routine — not a one-time curiosity. Here is how parents put it to work.

  • Check the area around your home — and around a new home before you move or rent.
  • Look at the places your kids spend time: a school, a park, a friend’s neighbourhood, a walking route.
  • Talk with your family about the areas to be aware of, in age-appropriate terms — awareness, not fear.
  • Set a standing alert so you are told when a registrant is added or moves in near you, instead of remembering to re-check.

One line that matters: registries exist for awareness and safety. Using the information to harass, threaten, or exclude a registrant is a crime in every US state. Use the list to make careful decisions for your own family, never to target anyone.

Keep the list current · from $3/mo

The list changes — be told when it does

People are added, move in, and are removed. Rather than re-running the search, let a monitor keep it current and email you the moment something changes.

Watch your area · $10/mo

Pick an address and a radius. You are emailed when a registrant is added, moves in, or a nearby record changes — each alert naming the change and linking to the official record. Add recipients so the whole family is covered.

Watch a person · $3/mo

Concerned about one specific person? Watch them by name and date of birth and be told if they are ever added to a registry.

FAQ

Sex offender list: common questions

How do I get a list of sex offenders near me?

Search from your address or ZIP code. You get back the registered sex offenders we index near that point across all 58 US registries, each as a full record with a photograph, offense detail, distance and a link to the official state registry entry. Widen the radius to cover a school route or a whole town, or narrow it to your immediate block.

Is this the same as my state’s registry list?

It draws on the same public registries, but it puts every US registry in one place so you are not searching one state at a time — useful because someone registered in a neighbouring state can still live near you. Every record links back to the official state registry entry so you can confirm it at the source.

Can I use the list to keep my family safe?

Yes — for personal awareness and safety planning. Many parents check the area around home, a new rental, a school or a route their kids walk, and set a standing alert so they know if the picture changes. What you may not do is use registry information to harass, threaten, or exclude anyone — that is a crime in every US state, and the registry is for awareness, not vigilantism.

How current is the list?

The data is continuously updated and every record carries its own lastCheckedAt timestamp, so currency is something you read off each result rather than take on trust. An address on a registry is where a registrant last reported living, and registries update on their own schedules.

Does the list include everyone?

No — and it is important to be clear about that. A registry lists people a state requires to register; it is not a list of everyone who has ever offended, and a person listed as transient or without a fixed address cannot be placed on a map by anyone. Treat the list as one safety tool alongside your own judgement, not a guarantee.

Standard Offendersearch results are not a consumer report. Use them for personal safety only — never for hiring, tenancy or credit decisions, and never to harass, threaten or exclude anyone.
