Terrytown on the Jefferson Parish West Bank
Terrytown sits just across the Mississippi River from New Orleans on the West Bank of Jefferson Parish. It neighbors other unincorporated communities including Marrero, Harvey, and Gretna. The JPSO maintains a West Bank district office to serve this side of the parish, and that office handles all registration activity for Terrytown.
Because several West Bank communities are all unincorporated and all under JPSO jurisdiction, the registration process is the same across them. A registrant moving from Marrero to Terrytown, for example, still processes the update through the same JPSO office. The address on file changes, but the process is consistent.
The JPSO uses OffenderWatch for all West Bank registrations. Data entered at the West Bank district office appears in the OffenderWatch public portal and in the LSP statewide registry within the system's normal update cycle.
