Four active jails. Confirm the actual housing.

Facility and guideStreet addressPhone
Central Detention Center / CDC →630 E. Rialto Ave., San Bernardino, CA 92415909-386-0969
West Valley Detention Center / WVDC →9500 Etiwanda Ave., Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91739909-350-2476
High Desert Detention Center / HDDC →9438 Commerce Way, Adelanto, CA 92301760-530-9300
Glen Helen Rehabilitation Center / GHRC →18000 Institution Rd., Devore, CA 92407909-473-3689

Use the Sheriff locator before visiting, mailing or depositing. High Desert’s public visits use on-site video; West Valley’s manual describes glass-separated visits; Central and Glen Helen have their own visiting areas. Official schedules conflict, so use the confirmed appointment. Juvenile, city/station, federal and immigration custody remain separate. The legacy Victorville Jail record at Civic Drive is not a fifth verified main adult jail. Physical addresses above are travel destinations; Glen Helen’s postal address requires separate confirmation.

Original directory and other custody systems

The reviewed orientation is above. This older directory is preserved with historical listings and facilities from other systems. Use the current guide for the confirmed facility; adult-jail rules do not automatically apply to youth custody, special programs or other operators.

Four main jails. Confirm current housing first.

The locator provides the booking number, facility and housing location needed for a visit. Each building has a different visitor door and mailing address.
