Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding where a sex offender resides.

The purpose of this legislation is to clarify the definition of "residence" for purposes of sexual offender registration. The bill defines when an offender is considered to habitually live at a location, including objective time and frequency standards, and clarifies how residency applies to homeless offenders. These changes are intended to promote consistent enforcement, improve compliance, and enhance public safety by providing clearer guidance to offenders and law enforcement. This legislation also clarifies the exception allowing registered adult criminal sex offenders to reside within five hundred feet of a school or daycare when living in licensed or certified facilities providing incarceration, hospital, health, or convalescent care. The bill ensures consistent interpretation of the statute while maintaining existing public safety protections.
