Index of Federal Prison Facilities

This page provides a comprehensive list of all federal prison facilities operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, organized by security level. The BOP classifies facilities into five security levels: minimum, low, medium, high, and administrative. Where an individual is designated depends on factors including offense severity, criminal history, and escape risk—see Designation and Transfer for details.

For information on visiting an inmate at any of these facilities, see Visitation Policies. Many facilities house notable offenders—for example, Jordan Belfort served time at FCI Taft, Martha Stewart at FPC Alderson, and Sam Bankman-Fried is currently incarcerated at FCI Terminal Island.
