Bayville, Other N.J. Towns With Most Registered Criminal Offenders

Ever wondered if - and how many - registered criminal offenders live in your town?

Now you can find out - and you may be surprised to see who is on the list.

Below is a "Registered Criminal Offender Risk Index" that identifies the number of registered criminal offenders in each New Jersey community per capita, or based on population.

Housing data provider RealtyTrac says it wanted to provide "the power of big data" directly into the hands - particularly mobile devices - of consumers to uncover the "good, bad and even ugly about a home and the neighborhood it’s in."

The index is based on the number of registered criminal offenders - including sex offenders, child predators, kidnappers and violent offenders - as a percentage of total population in zip codes across New Jersey.

The offender data is collected from each state’s criminal offender registry online, such as those provided by the FBI and the New Jersey State Police. The list does not include offenders living in correctional facilities in the totals for each town.

Below is the top-200 list, which lists the zip-code areas of each community - which is why some communities, such as Newark, are repeated.

The list also identifies the number of sex offenders in each community, and the percentage of population:
