On Tuesday, the Town of Newburgh Police Department released a list of Level-2 and Level-3 sex offenders living in the Town of Newburgh.

"In accordance with the New York State Sex Offender Registration Act (Megan's Law), the Town of Newburgh Police Department is passing along the following information," the Town of Newburgh Police Department wrote on Facebook. "There are three levels, based upon an offender's risk of committing another sex crime and harm to the community: Level 1 (low), Level 2 (moderate), and Level 3 (high)."

Level-3 sex offenders are considered to have the highest risk of a repeat offense and are considered the greatest risk to the public. Level-2 sex offenders have a medium risk of a repeat offense.

Researching the list, Hudson Valley Post learned four sex offenders live across the street from a daycare.
