Not a Consumer Reporting Agency. California Residents Directory is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Neither the pages nor results from an outside search tool may be used to make decisions about credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another purpose covered by the FCRA.
Accuracy and Current Status
Public rolls are corrected, portals and fees change, library holdings move, and digitization can extend a collection. We review the reference, but details may be incomplete or out of date. Check the record with its custodian before relying on it.
No Legal Advice
The information here is not legal advice. It describes records and directory sources in California, but it cannot replace advice from a licensed attorney.
Use Records Lawfully
Public records support transparency and lawful research. Do not use information found through these pages to stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm anyone. California Penal Code § 646.9 addresses stalking, and § 290.46 governs use of Megan’s Law information. Misuse can violate state or federal law and these Terms of Use.
Search Tools from Other Providers
Search boxes on some pages are run by outside companies. We do not set their prices, control their results, or decide how they use submitted information. Their outputs are not FCRA-compliant consumer reports.
Links to Custodians and Libraries
Links lead to assessors, recorders, elections offices, courts, libraries, archives, and other resources. Their operators control their content, accuracy, and availability; we cannot guarantee any outside page will work.
Records Stay with Their Custodians
No government voter file, directory volume, court document, or vital record is stored here. The pages point to offices, libraries, and portals that hold those materials. To obtain, check, or amend an official record, contact its custodian.
