Sex Offender Registry Statistics
As of November 1, 2007, there were 41,942 offenders in the Michigan Sex Offender Registry (SOR). Of those, 2,487 were juveniles and 13,025 were incarcerated. On average, 200 new offenders are added to the SOR per month. The Michigan SOR has a compliance rate of approximately 60 percent. Those offenders not in compliance either failed to change their address or failed to verify their address. (Note: Statistical comparisons among states are often inaccurate because each state has different requirements for who is registered and how statistics are reported.)
Of the 41,942 offenders in the SOR, 25,443 are required to verify their address either yearly or quarterly depending on their offense. Incarcerated offenders and offenders who have reported they left Michigan and moved to another state are not required to verify. At the end of the October 2007 verification period, 15,243 offenders were in compliance with SOR Act requirements and 10,200 offenders had failed to comply with requirements of the Act.
