National Registered Sex Offender Laws

Oregon Sex Offenders

The Oregon Sex Offender law directs all convicted sex offenders living in the state to register with the state’s police. The law makes provision for the evaluation of sex offenders in Oregon upon their conviction. This evaluation determines the risk level assigned to each registered offender.

Sex offenders in Oregon have different risk levels depending on their ability to re-offend. They are generally classified into 3 risk levels:

  1. Level 3 (High-risk offenders)
  2. Level 2 (Moderate-risk offenders)
  3. Level 1 (Low-risk offenders)

Level 1 offenders pose the lowest risk to the residents of Oregon. Level 2 offenders pose a moderate risk to the residents of the state. All high-risk offenders are under the Level 3 risk classifications. Profiles on high-risk offenders are available to the public on the internet.

The duration of registration also depends on the risk-level classifications of the offenders.

The state of Oregon, unlike most other states in the country, does not place restrictions on where a sex offender lives, attends school, or visits.
