When an individual is convicted of a sexual crime, their name and conviction becomes a matter of public record. And whether it be for safety, peace of mind, or simply a knowledge of their surroundings, many people want to know if they are living in close proximity to registered sex offenders.
While according to HomeFacts.com, Honolulu County has the highest number of registered sex offenders, it also has the highest population, and therefore, it has low statistics per capita.

We have chosen to stray away from exact locations, but you are welcome to check exact addresses and names on HomeFacts.com.
