    Personally, I would say that Boo Radley has the reputation of being dead. At least, thats what the kids and others think. Although at this point in american history most people see someone who remains so secluded as a rapist or a person of evil or violent undertakings. The people of maycomb county don't exactly see Boo and only hear of when he sneaks out at night and this frightens the kids, naturally the normal assumption of people at this time in history is that hge is not a good person considering his seclusion. As a result I would say he has a poor and outcastish, reputation.

    According to what I take from it, Boo Radley has the reputation of a being a maniac that has been locked up in his parents house.  Some believe he is dead, while others believe he comes out at night looking through Maycomb's residents' windows.

    Boo Radley has a reputation as being an insane juvenile delinquent who has been locked up in seclusion by his parents.  Because of Boo's seclusion and previous antics he is seen as unmanageable and dangerous by the people of Maycomb.
