Sumter County Detention Center Inmate Search
Under the Florida Constitution, most people arrested in Sumter County are entitled to reasonable pretrial release. The exceptions are capital and life felonies when the proof is evident, and cases where no conditions would protect the community. Minor misdemeanor and traffic offenses often lead to a notice to appear instead of bail. For most other charges, the Florida Supreme Court publishes a uniform statewide bond schedule each year.
The quickest way to find out what an inmate’s bail is set at is to call the Sumter County Detention Center at 352-569-1700. The Florida uniform statewide bond schedule for 2026 lists the minimum bond for each offense, although each judicial circuit can set higher amounts and a judge at first appearance isn’t bound by it. The county accepts cash, surety bonds, and property bonds, or may release an offender on personal recognizance.
The Sumter County Detention Center is licensed for 521 inmates, but it often has to make room for many more, especially on weekends. At most city and county jails in Florida, the inmate population turns over at least 35-40% each month, another 25-30% every 90 days, and another 15-20% every six months, and approximately 8-9% remain in custody for six to twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges such as rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county remain in one of the Sumter County facilities much longer.
Every year, approximately 11,620 offenders are arrested and detained by Sumter County law enforcement agencies.

⇓ Learn more ⇓ Show lessThe Sumter County Detention Center, first built at its existing location in 1965, is currently rated for 527 inmates. Over the years it has undergone many expansions, tear downs and renovations. As it stands today, it is an architectual marvel (from a jail point of view) and a model of inmate logistics and efficiency.

In the early 2000s the Sumter County Detention Center was a mess. With only 178 beds, there were days in which they had twice that number of inmates, with men sleeping on the floor and the place reeking of sweat, urine and cleaning fluids. The Sheriff's Department was spending lots of taxpayer money moving inmates back and forth from neighboring county jails to court every day. It was at that time they decided to either turn the operation over to a private prison management company or build a new facility. They chose the latter.
The first expansion came in 2010. They added 138,200 square feet of space at a total cost of $40 million. The expansion added a total of 192 beds, a laundry, visitation center, commissary, booking and release center, a 40-bed classification area, a 64 bed mental health area, a 24 bed special housing area, and a new medical clinic.
The second expansion was completed in 2021. It added 38,662 square feet with 256 beds. For $19 million, the county received a two level building of modular cells in multiple pods, with an enclosed fence walkway leading the adjoining buildings.

The Sumter County Detention Center, in a county well known for being home to the famous Villages Retirement Community for active adults, is located at 219 E Anderson Avenue in Bushnell, Florida. You can reach the jail 24 hours a day by calling 352-569-1700.
You can look up inmates online using the Sumter County Inmate Jail Roster. It provides mugshots, criminal charges, bond amounts and personal information such as dates of birth on the newly arrested, current inmates and those who have been released. You can choose a date range.
The Sumter County Detention Center in downtown Bushnell is the county’s only jail. The Sumter County Sheriff’s Office runs it at 219 E Anderson Avenue, Bushnell, FL 33513. The sheriff’s non-emergency line is (352) 569-1600, and jail staff answer questions about phone blocks at (352) 569-1700, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The center has 521 beds and books about 4,600 people a year from every law enforcement agency in the county. It holds people awaiting trial, sentencing or transfer, plus those serving county sentences of up to a year. It is accredited by both the American Correctional Association and the National Commission on Correctional Health Care. Weekly programs include religious services, Alcoholics Anonymous, GED classes and mental health services. A reentry team also screens new arrivals for drug court and veterans court and helps with housing, health care and transportation after release.
The sheriff’s Current SCDC Inmates portal shows who is in custody. For warrants, the FDLE wanted persons search covers the state, though it isn’t a complete list. Sumter is part of Florida’s Fifth Judicial Circuit. First appearance takes place within 24 hours of arrest (Florida Rule 3.130), and the judge may raise, lower or keep the bond.
The sheriff’s FAQ explains that the arresting officer records the bond from the court’s schedule, and the amount can’t be negotiated at the jail. Domestic charges wait for a judge, and warrant arrests use the bond written on the warrant. For 2026 the starting point is the Florida Supreme Court’s uniform statewide bond schedule, and the Fifth Circuit’s chief judge may set higher amounts. Florida’s Constitution (Article I, Section 14) guarantees most people reasonable pretrial release. The exceptions are capital or life felonies where proof is evident and cases where no conditions can protect the community. Statutes also require a judge’s review first for some serious offenses (sections 903.011, 903.046, 907.041). Low-level misdemeanors are often handled with a notice to appear. The sheriff doesn’t publish where cash bonds are paid or which payment types are accepted, so call before you go. If you use a bondsman, Florida sets the premium at 10% of the bond (Florida DFS). It isn’t refundable, and agents typically charge at least $100 on small bonds.
There are no in-person visits. All visiting is by video through HomeWAV (homewav.com), which also handles the jail’s phones, tablets and e-messaging. Visiting days, hours and prices are posted on HomeWAV’s site. Account holders must be 18 or older and upload a selfie and a government ID that match their registration. Children can take part only on a parent’s or guardian’s account with that adult present. Visitors must be modestly dressed, and recording visits, three-way calls and showing other screens are not allowed. People inside can use the phones from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., except during counts.
Since December 2018 the jail has accepted only postcards and legal mail through the post office. Address postcards to the person’s name at 219 E Anderson Avenue, Bushnell, FL 33513, and send photos or longer notes through HomeWAV messaging instead. To add money, use the 24-hour kiosk in the intake/release lobby, the kiosk at the visitation center during visiting hours, or commissarydeposit.com. The kiosks take cash, debit and credit cards. A $20 subsistence fee is taken at booking, and anyone released leaves with their remaining balance on a debit card.
We couldn’t confirm a fixed-route bus to the jail, so most families drive. Downtown Bushnell is small, and everything is within a few blocks. There’s a Chevron at 122 E Noble Ave and a Marathon at 504 N Main St. For a quick meal, try Coney Island Bushnell at 311 N Market St or El Azteca Mexican Cocina at 138 Bushnell Plaza, across from the courthouse. More chains, including Wendy’s and Culver’s, sit out by I-75 on County Road 48.
When someone is arrested, they are taken to Sumter County Detention Center for booking. This process includes identifying them, deciding on charges, and determining if they will be eligible for bail or held until court.
It's important to stay silent during this process, as any statements made may be used in court. Legal advice should be sought before speaking about the case.
The following steps make up the booking process at Sumter County Detention Center:

There are two options for putting money on an inmate's books:
Choice 1 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
Sumter County Detention Center uses CommissaryDeposit.com to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. The company charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.

Mailing a deposit takes more time to process than the other methods but can be done if you live too far away to bring it in person and you don't have a debit/credit card for online deposits. Never send cash. Always send a Money Order from the US Post Office, a reputable bank or Western Union.
Make the Money Order out to the inmate's name and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order.
**Call 352-569-1700 first to ask Sumter County Detention Center if this option is still available.
