No, not the exact exact locations, just the city or county. Currently looking into local charities, foster care, teen runaway programs in the hot spots which include Fairfax, Richmond, Manassas and Norfolk.

Im using this websites search engine http://www.missingkids.com/Search/VA and taking notes from what they provide. Searching year by year. Completed similar searches for all states not just Virginia. I dont know what agencies supply the data or who is responsible for maintaining the site. Also an interesting point about Virginia is the amount of missing kids without a stock photo. An anomaly exclusive to Virginia
I'm not attacking you, goes without saying, but I think its fair to question the data. Clearly not questioning your results. I have a hard time believing those are numbers of reports as opposed to active cases.

That data doesn't seem right.
Are you sure that doesn't include resolved cases? I find it hard to believe it was that few in those other years.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. How do the names end up on this page. What's the criteria and circumstances. 290+ entries this year.

Effort is much appreciated and valued. Being a VA resident, this is crushing.
