Where American Samoa ranks

American Samoa holds the 54th-largest count of registrants we index among the 56 US jurisdictions — just behind Guam (≈857) and ahead of US Virgin Islands (≈140). American Samoa's rate works out to 3.0 registrants indexed per 1,000 residents, against a national average of about 4.7 per 1,000 — though at this registry's size a per-capita rank would read as precision we do not hold. American Samoa's rate is higher than 2 of its 3 neighboring jurisdictions in the table and lower than 1. Absolute size and per-capita rate order the states very differently — the full rankings are on the count ranking and the per-capita ranking.

Housing status (national estimate). No per-state housing figure is published here, because our housing data is a national sample estimate: across 6,668 sampled records nationwide, 5.7% of registrants with a known housing status were homeless or had no fixed address as of August 2026. That figure describes the country, not American Samoa — the breakdown is on the national statistics page.

What these American Samoa numbers measure

Every figure on this page is a count of the registry records in our continuously updated index that carry a American Samoa address, rounded to three significant figures and dated to August 2026. Rates divide that rounded count by the 2020 Census population, so they describe scale, not precision to the last person. Local counts cover the cities and counties we publish pages for, not every town in the state.

Registry sizes are not a direct measure of risk. States set their own rules on who must register, for how long, and which registrants are shown to the public, so two states with similar populations can carry very different counts. Use the comparison for context, and a search for any question about a specific person or address.

American Samoa's registry publishes a full date of birth, so if you know the person's birthday a match can be confirmed precisely. With a common name, a matching date of birth is the fastest way to tell two people apart.

FAQ

American Samoa statistics, answered

How many registered sex offenders live in American Samoa?

As of August 2026, we index about 147 sex-offender registry records in American Samoa — the 54th-most of the 56 US jurisdictions. That is a count of the records in our continuously updated index, not American Samoa's official figure: registries add, remove and amend records all the time, so the live answer for a specific person comes from a search, not a table.

How many sex offenders does American Samoa have per capita?

About 3.0 registrants indexed per 1,000 residents, using the 2020 Census population as the denominator. American Samoa's rate works out to 3.0 registrants indexed per 1,000 residents, against a national average of about 4.7 per 1,000 — though at this registry's size a per-capita rank would read as precision we do not hold. A rate describes the size of a registry relative to population — jurisdictions differ in who must register, for how long, and which registrants they publish, so it is a scale comparison rather than a safety measure.

How does American Samoa compare with neighboring states?

American Samoa's rate is higher than 2 of its 3 neighboring jurisdictions in the table and lower than 1. Rates differ partly because states set different rules for who must register, for how long, and which registrants are shown publicly, so a neighbor comparison describes registry size relative to population rather than relative risk.

Where can I search American Samoa's sex offender registry?

American Samoa's own public search is American Samoa Sex Offender Registry (TTSORS), which covers American Samoa only. A search here covers American Samoa and every other US registry at once, with photographs and links to each official record, and can be narrowed to a American Samoa city, county or ZIP.

Are these American Samoa's official registry numbers?

No — they are approximate counts of the registrants we index for American Samoa, rounded to three significant figures and dated to August 2026. Jurisdictions count different things (people, registrations, addresses) and publish on their own terms, so no single official national table exists. For a legal or research purpose that requires American Samoa's official figure, request it from the state registry authority.

Registry data is not a consumer report, and decisions made on it are regulated in that use.
