Baldwin Park Sex Offenders Mapped Online

 
Ever wonder if your neighbors are secretly not so friendly?
The sex offender registry is public record, and new neighbors are legally supposed to announce themselves as sex offenders if they've been convicted. But that transparency can be hard to come by — unless you know about CrimeReports.com.
The website is a great resource for local crime data. Some police departments use it to show the community where crimes are taking place, including our Baldwin Park Police. But even in places where the local PD doesn't participate, the whole country has been mapped with addresses and photos of sex offenders.
The criminals are marked on the map with red triangles. Orange triangles symbolize two sex offenders living at one address. Click on the triangles to see details on the offenders.
In Baldwin Park, there are 48 registered sex offenders listed on the Megan's Law website. A total of 4 are highlighted as in violation of their registration requirements.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of an offender in violation should contact the Baldwin Park Police Department.
