Orange County custody
Anaheim Police Department Detention Facility
425 South Harbor Boulevard, Anaheim, CA 92805 · Public entrance on Santa Ana Street, west of Harbor
The Anaheim Detention Facility is the city jail run by the Anaheim Police Department, inside the main police station on South Harbor Boulevard. It is where most people arrested in Anaheim are booked. It is a city facility, not a county one, and it is not one of our offices.

How long someone can be held here
The Anaheim Police Department describes this as a Type 1 jail facility. Under California Code of Regulations, Title 15, section 1006, a Type I facility is defined as a local detention facility used to hold people for not more than 96 hours, excluding holidays, after booking.
That is the regulatory definition of the facility class. It is not a prediction about any individual case, and it is not a countdown. We will not tell you how long a particular person will be held, or where they will go next — those decisions belong to the police department and the court, and anyone who claims otherwise is guessing. If someone is moved, we will find them again.
Finding someone arrested in Anaheim
Nobody can be bailed out until booking is finished, and a record does not appear the moment somebody is arrested. Locating a person is free and it is the first thing we do. Our find an inmate guide sets out what information you need and what to do when the record has not appeared yet. For county custody, the Sheriff runs the Orange County inmate information system. You can also call the detention facility directly on (714) 765-1988.
Where an Anaheim case is heard
Criminal cases arising from Anaheim arrests are heard in the North Justice Center in Fullerton. Address, hours and bail information are on our North Justice Center page, and every Orange County courthouse is listed on our courthouses page.
What a bail bond costs in California
Bail bond premiums in California are set by rates each surety files with the California Department of Insurance. They are not a percentage fixed by statute — a point most bail websites state incorrectly. Ten per cent is the most commonly filed rate, not a legal ceiling. Our payments page explains how pricing and payment options actually work, and we will give you the exact figure once we know the bail amount and the charge.
How we help, and from where
Our nearest office is Anaheim, at 1055 N Harbor Blvd — a little over a mile north of the detention facility. We also have offices in Brea and La Habra, and those three are our only physical locations. Addresses are on our locations page.
