State Criminal Availability and Source

Not every state offers a statewide criminal background search; some states only provide access at the county level. To make things easier, the table below breaks down what’s available in each state. You’ll see whether a statewide search can be done, court fees, and where the official criminal record data comes from. This way, you’ll know exactly what to expect before you start a search.
