FAQ

About these numbers

Where do these registry numbers come from?

Each figure is the count of sex-offender registry records in our continuously updated national index for that jurisdiction as of August 2026, rounded to three significant figures. They are our index counts — not official state counts, which the states publish (or decline to publish) on their own terms.

Why is the national total larger than the state rows added together?

The national figure — about 1,560,000 records — spans all 58 registries we index, including national and tribal registries whose coverage overlaps the states, while this table lists the 56 geographic jurisdictions. Searches de-duplicate across registries, so a person listed in more than one place returns as one person.

Can I download this table?

Yes — the state table, with populations and per-1,000 rates and an as-of date on every row, is a free CSV on the data downloads page, alongside the city-level file. Attribution with a link is all we ask.
