I grew up with a sex offender right down the road. The neighbors told my parents the day we moved in and they told me the next day. We just werent allowed near the house or the guy who lived there. We still live in that house 10 years later, now there are 10 kids on my street and their parents dont watch them at all. Scares the sh*t of me when i think about it. (the good thing is they are too busy scratching the SVX and petting my rottweiler when i'm not home to investigate his house.)

Unfortunately there isnt much one can do. You cant make them live in colonies forever. They finished thier punishment, you cnat punish them forever. Moving isnt helpful, there could be another in your area or one could move in. The best you can do is watch your kids, dont let your wife walk outside alone at night, and be watchful.

I don't interact with my neighbors other than the occasional eye contact and hat tip, so it would not bother me.

I know wackos are out there, and unless I'm living next to a clepto, I really don't see any cause for worry.

Also, I don't have kids and I can defend myself plenty.

On the state website here it'll tell you what you need to know. I think it is good to know who they are.

We have a guy a few towns over that was charged with assaulting a sheep.

They don't tell you what the offense was.

One place I used to live in So Cal, it was safe for my wife to go out at night alone . . .

My state gives you general info but no conviction info. I looked at MI (used to live there) and they list the conviction codes and number of convictions. I wish they would all do that, i'd like to know what type of crime my neighbor convicted of.

The only person listed as a rapist in my town lives on the street next to my boyfriends moms street. I happened to realize she owns a really long lot that meets up with every backyard down that street! They had no idea and their family has owned that house for nearly 100 years! (i know for sure his stepdad's family owned it in the early 40's but i dont know exactly what year they bought it) Its scary, i'm planning on driving down that street to see if its on her side of the street. I'm praying to god its on the other side. I've played in her yard with her dogs and grandson alone countless times! gee, i thought i was careful when it came to these things (i carry mace, a tactile flashlight, and i always lock the doors in my car and i never walk alone in parking lots! Who know you should be more watchful in your FMIL's backyard?

That's a great link, but this stinks:

No mapable data

Unfortunately, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont do not currently provide addresses for registered sex offenders. Consequently, we are unable to provide adequate or meaningful information about sex offenders located in these states.

I have a lot of wackadoos living near me...heck had a peeping tom stalking my 15 yr. old daughter last year. All the police told me was nothing could be done that I had to catch him on video...so a fellow SVXr came and installed window locks & motion lights to keep him away.

There are 2 ON MY BLOCK!!! and I have a 14 year old daughter still home!!

I guess I'll have to start on the 'pill-box' house on the top of the hill on the farm!!! ordering razor wire and land mines.......
