DETENTION FACILITY DESIGNATORS

 

To assist you with determining what jail one of our inmates is in, you first need to look them up by their last name or booking number (use the Who's In Jail page).  Note the "Facility" on their screen, it is located under the "ARREST" information.  

From time-to-time you may find documents that list a facility number instead of the actual name.  Below is a list of our detention facilities by their number and the corresponding name.  You can click on the facility number below to go directly to the web page for that facility.

Facility 1 San Diego Central Jail
Facility 2 Descanso Detention Facility
Facility 3 George Bailey Detention Facility
Facility 4 East Mesa Detention Facility
Facility 5 Las Colinas Detention Facility
Facility 6 South Bay Detention Facility
Facility 7 Vista Detention Facility

For more information about the inmate, such as visiting hours etc., please visit the facility page or call the information line at the facility where the inmate is housed (that number is located on the facility page).  Also you can call our toll free visit reservation line.

To write the inmate, address the envelope as follows:

                Inmates Name (followed by) Inmates Booking Number
                The Facility Name
                Facility Address (Street or PO Box)
                Facility City, State ZIP Code

An Example:

                John Smith #02011100
                San Diego Central Jail
                P.O. Box 122952
                San Diego, CA  92112-2952

A great source of information for family and friends of our inmates can be found in our Public Information Plan.  It is a very comprehensive document.
