About
Public information, in one place to start
PublicInformationForYou.com is a website of public information in the United States that is searchable by name, ZIP Code, and address. The United States does not keep a single national file of “everything about a person.” Records sit in county courthouses, assessor offices, secretaries of state, federal dockets, and agency reading rooms.
This portal is built as a civic front door: one search box, then a path to the office that actually holds the document. ZIP and address searches call live public geography services (Zippopotam.us and the U.S. Census Geocoder) and then open the county assessor and clerk. The people index remains a labeled demonstration. A full national personal-records warehouse would require licensed government feeds.
Software agents can read a plain-text map at llms.txt and a JSON index at catalog.json. Those files describe the same official-source directory humans see. They do not expose a private people database.
Run locally with the API proxy: python3 server.py then open http://127.0.0.1:8765/. The server rewrites sitemap.xml whenever a public HTML page is added or changed. For a static host, run python3 sitemap.py before you upload.
Design principle: prefer a .gov original over a resold profile. Label sample data. Refuse FCRA uses.
How a search is meant to work
ZIP Code

Address
Open the parcel page: owner of record, legal description, sales, and recorded instruments.
