About this report: Locations are aggregated from city data, DOB filings, and public advocacy directories. Family shelter addresses are intentionally protected by NYC DHS — this list may be incomplete. Sex offender data is sourced from the NYS DCJS registry and shown as counts only; for details, visit the official registry.
