About the Homewood Jail
The Homewood Jail is one of the oldest jails in Alabama, having been established in 1926 when Charles Rice pushed to merge five smaller towns into one city. The jail is located at 1833 29th Avenue South in Homewood, AL and has a capacity for 88 inmates. It typically holds about 20 inmates at any given time. The main phone number for the facility is 205-332-6210 and can be contacted 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. In 1959, Birmingham attempted to annex Homewood but their efforts were defeated by local voters. However, there was another attempt in 1964 which resulted in voting irregularities and lawsuits that ultimately thwarted the move. During the 1940's, Homewood's police and fire departments expanded to match the city's 75% increase in population between 1940 and 1950. The majority of prisoners in this facility are arrested for misdemeanors or other nonviolent crimes such as theft or traffic violations. Inmates have an opportunity to post bail if they wish to gain their release from the jail. The website for the facility is homewoodpd.org which provides information about services, programs, events and more related to the Jail and its operations.
