Questions about Pennsylvania inmate search

How do I find someone in a Pennsylvania county jail?

Search the name at the top of this page, or pick the county where the arrest happened from the 67 counties we cover. We do not copy a live jail roster in Pennsylvania yet, so each county page links the jail's own lookup or phone number where we have one. You can also call the jail with the person's full name and date of birth.

How do I find someone in Pennsylvania state prison?

People sentenced to more than about a year for a state crime are held by the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections. Its own offender search is the source of record. We also copy the state prison inmate list, last read Oct 21, 2026, so a name search here can find people in state prison. We list 73 state prisons in Pennsylvania.

How many jails and prisons are there in Pennsylvania?

We list 191 facilities in Pennsylvania: 82 county jails, 73 state prisons, 15 federal facilities and 21 other facilities. Each facility page has its address, phone number and how to visit, call, send money and post bail.
