A map of where registered sex offenders live shows that parts of rural Ontario have more than their share. In Toronto, registered sex offenders cluster in the east downtown, roughly bounded by Carlton, Jarvis, the Don Valley Parkway and the Lakeshore. There are smaller pockets in the Junction and Parkdale. The area measured is the postal code designation known as the Forward Sortation Area — the first three characters of the code. FSAs throughout midtown Toronto show a fairly low number of such persons — typically less than 50 per 100,000 of population. A map at the link below permits residents to search their FSA. The information became available in recent days because of a decision by the Supreme court of Canada. Global News says it has fought a six year battle to obtain release of the data. Global calls it the map that the government of Ontario did not want you to see. While interesting, the map seems to show what might be expected. Global News Ontario sex offender map seems predictable
