You get scored matches with photographs and official record links, and the search covers every US registry at once, so someone now in New Castle County who was registered elsewhere still surfaces.

How do I find sex offenders near a New Castle County address?
Search outward from a street address or ZIP within New Castle County. Each result is the full registry record — photograph, offense history and the official state link — and you can widen the radius from one mile to a hundred to cover a neighbourhood or the whole area. It is address-and-radius search rather than a map, and it sees registrants whose published address we hold and have placed on a coordinate.
Is this the official New Castle County sex offender registry?
Registries are maintained per state, not per county, so no single official "New Castle County registry" list exists. What you search here is our continuously updated national dataset with every US registry in one place, and each record links back to the official state entry that published it — so you can verify any New Castle County result at its source.
