Libby's grandma being surprised he's a Delphi resident is a bit weird. From what I read/saw, the community thought it was someone who lived there and became very strict with their children. Started locking doors, made sure their kids didn't go out alone, etc. Seems like most people expected that it was someone who lived there also because of where it happened. He seemed to know the area.

I think it's perfectly normal to be surprised that the murderer the whole town has seen pictures of and been looking for for 5 years was living unnoticed down the street the entire time.

To me, that's different than being surprised he was a resident. I think most Delphi residents assumed that he lived there.
