EDMONDS, WA -- As I work with prospective buyers, one of the many questions that seems to come up consistently is about crime in particular neighborhoods. Every since the state of Washington required sex offenders to register, this issue has emerged as one of the more visible and often watched pieces of information in the state.
Did you know that there is a website run by the Washington Association of Sheriff and Police Chiefs that allows you to see how many (and what level) of sex offenders live in a particular area? The good news is that this information is really easy to access. You can get sex offender living information from this link. The bad news is that "they're everywhere."
But rather than be a cause for alarm, I think we should realize how much of an issue this is and be mindful of our surroundings and those around us. It's our unfortunate reality these days.
Just click on the county you want to search and then click the "Search" button. You can also sign up for email alerts for your neighborhood.
I hope you find this resource valuable. But dont' let it run your life or become overly freaked out about where you live (or want to live). And don't start witch hunts! :)
