Several online directory services, such as Whitepages.com, YellowPages.com and 411.com, provide listed addresses for individuals across the country. All three services provide address information for free, if publicly available.

Whitepages.com provides a search box for looking up address information. Enter the person’s first and last name, and city, state or ZIP code into the appropriate boxes. Click the Search button to see a list of possible matches. From the populated list, click on the View Full Profile box for the appropriate person to view her address. If the correct person is not listed in the search results, Whitepages provides potential matches from other sponsored search services below the results. Whitepages also allows you to search by business and phone number.

From the YellowPages home page, click on the Find People link near the top of the page. Enter the person’s first name, last name, and city or ZIP code into the provided boxes. Click the Search icon to retrieve a list of addresses from the directory. The individual’s address is listed underneath. You can also click on that person’s name for further information.

On the 411.com homepage, enter the person’s first and last name, and city, state or ZIP code. After you click the Search button, the company lists available matches based on the information you provided. Click on the View Full Profile button to retrieve address information for that specific person. 411.com also lists other matches from sponsored search services below the search results.
