Ditto! Maine is very safe compared to other places.

We have 23 registered sex offenders within 1.5 miles of our house, and this is in a community of approx 8500. And if you only have to walk in front of a window naked, then I may need to look for MY name on the list! Maybe I need to buy some curtains!!
PS. I think it would do you some good, LTTT, to take your focus off Maine for a while and do some research on similar sized cities across the U.S. I know exactly what you'll find - you never knew how good you had it!

You have a community of 8500 people and 23 registered sex offenders. Caibou is a community of app.9000 people with 34 registered sex offenders I think think we beat you!! But don't forget this State of Maine is a rose garden and there is no crime!!    And I do not think joking about SEX OFFENDERS is very funny!

No, that's not what I said. There are 23 within a mile and half of my house. There are actually 98 in the whole area covering an 8 mile radius.
And I would venture to say that you don't find much humor in anything! You are obviously a very miserable person and should seek help.
