    He might not be "required" to notify you, but if you have children, then common decency would say that a landlord should direct you to a police department database that would have that information.

    No, the sex offender has privacy rights. If you're curious you can look the person up in a registry. Most registries you can search by your address and it'll show you the closest offenders

    No. I believe such information is public record and you could look it up yourself if you wanted.
