Alachua Regional Juvenile Detention Center Inmate Search
Most people arrested in Alachua County can be released before trial. The Florida Constitution guarantees reasonable pretrial release except for capital or life felonies where the proof is evident, or where no conditions would protect the community. Minor misdemeanor and traffic arrests are often resolved with a notice to appear. For other charges, the Florida Supreme Court publishes a uniform statewide bond schedule with a minimum bond for each offense.
Calling the jail at 352-955-2105 is the easiest way to learn an inmate’s bail at the Alachua Regional Juvenile Detention Center. If you know the charge, the Florida uniform statewide bond schedule for 2026 shows the starting bond, though local circuits can set higher amounts and the first appearance judge can change it. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond, and can release offenders on personal recognizance.
The Alachua Regional Juvenile Detention Center has a licensed capacity of 45 inmates, yet it is often forced to house many more, especially over the weekend. Most city and county jails in Florida see at least 35-40% of their inmates turn over monthly, another 25-30% every 90 days, another 15-20% every six months, and about 8-9% remain between six and twelve months. Stays of more than a year usually involve serious charges such as rape or murder, and because preparing those cases for trial takes time, offenders arrested in this county can remain in one of the Alachua County facilities far longer.
Approximately 23,860 offenders are arrested and detained by Alachua County law enforcement agencies every year.
Our collection of jail photos, gathered over the years, is also available.

After being arrested, the offender is brought to the Alachua Regional Juvenile Detention Center for booking, which is the detailed process of identifying, classifying, deciding on charges, and whether the person will either be released on their own recognizance, allowed to be released on bail, or moved into the jail until their court date.
The first thing every newly arrested person must do is close their mouth. Everything an offender says may be used against them, so the best thing to do is remain silent when questioned about the arrest and what led to it.
These are the steps of booking someone into the Alachua Regional Juvenile Detention Center:
Booking can take as little as an hour, or up to 48 hours on a busy weekend or holiday evening, or if the offender is violent, wasted or generally uncooperative. If you have any questions about when you can pay an offender's bond and what the cost will be, call the facility at 352-955-2105 .
