Go to the pa state police website to link to the Megans law website; or simply use keyword pennsylavnia megans law. You can search by county, zip code, etc. They give you a picture, address, description, automobile, the full skinny. For crime statistics the philadelphia police website has a crime map. You simply enter the street intersection and the type of crime and it lists where and when each crime took place in that area. You search in 30 day increments; it is a very easy site to navigate. You can link to this map through the 6abc website at the end of most crime related stories also. Like the article suggests; walk the neighborhood multiple times before buying. We did that for a month before buying our house and we got very reliable opinions from the people who live there. Never ask the person selling the house about the neighborhood.

I would suggest visiting the website….http://www.familywatchdog.us/Search.asp for a list of sex offenders in the area in which you are intereste. For example, if you are moving onto Gilham Street in the zip 19135, just enter the information where prompted. Then, select the “list” icon and all the names and their addresses will appear on the screen. A great site and they will e-mail you with additions and deletions in your community.
