Sex Offender Watch: A Map of Glen Ellyn Homes to Keep on Your Radar This Halloween

Official trick-or-treat time for kids in Glen Ellyn is from 3 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 31. 

And while the thought of criminals in the neighborhood can take the fun out of what should be a carefree tradition, Patch wants to help parents in Glen Ellyn keep their kids safe this Halloween. So we've provided this map of the area's registered sex offenders. It's unnerving, but we hope that it will help your peace of mind to have more information.

In general, the laws center on sex offenders registering in person each year at the local police department. They must do so for a required 10-year registration period, unless they are separately required to register for life. Offenders are prohibited from living within 500 feet of a school, daycare center, youth center or other facility that caters to children younger than 18 years old.

How the Map Works

The map is interactive, meaning you can zoom in, zoom out, or move it around to see all the plotted points.

Floating your cursor over one of the markers will give you the name of the sex offender and their address. Double clicking on the marker will give you more information about the specific charge.

The four yellow markers represent sex offenders who are not listed as sexual predators. The remaining red pins are those who are labeled as sexual predators in the registry.
