    It’s shockingly easy to get this sort of information on just about anybody. Many if not most cities and counties have publicly-searchable tax parcel data available on their GIS portals, and quite a few of those include the owner’s name as a searchable field. If you know roughly where somebody lives, odds are pretty good you can find their home address.

    I deal with this sort of data a lot for site master-planning studies, and lately I have noticed some cities don’t provide ownership data in the public portal anymore, but you’d be surprised how many still do.
