🧭 Search Area Guidance

Based on dementia‑related wandering patterns, most individuals are found within 1.5 miles of their last known location — but Ramon has previously traveled 4–5 miles across Jersey City. Residents in Hamilton Park, Erie Street, Downtown Jersey City, South District, and transit‑connected areas should:

• Check home security cameras and doorbell footage
• Look around yards, porches, sheds, alleys, and building entrances
• Notify police immediately if you see anyone matching his description

Because Ramon frequently uses transit buses, please also share this alert with contacts in NYC, Hudson County, and Atlantic County, where he has reportedly traveled in the past.
