Default Sex Offenders in Small Towns?

I've been pulling up information on small towns in N AL and was shocked to see that Falkville has 10 sex offenders--the town only has like 1203 residents.

Falkville surely has schools and sex offenders can't live within so many feet of a day care, school, etc. So how could 10 sex offenders live in a 3.something square mile radius (of course, that is the town of Falkville, not the outskirts) and NOT be that close to any daycare, school, etc?

Any idea why there are so many registered sex offenders among the Falkville population?

Don't know exactly why. Falkville is a very small town and the post office covers a bigger area of countryside...so although it may be the same zip code, the residence could be several miles away. Only 1 school in Falkville...don't know about daycares...

You are right Southlander.. Arab proper isn't that large but the police jurisdiction goes way beyond that, I think it is 3 miles each way so while it may seem like a lot it may be they live in the zip or within the police jurisdiction.

They also don't count this area in the population of Arab. Pop. say 7500 but in reality there are 14,500 in the area.
