The Young County Inmate Population
The Young County inmate population is reported through the Texas Commission on Jail Standards, while current name-level custody is checked through the county jail list. The active local jail is Young County Jail, operated by the Young County Sheriff's Office in Graham. TCJS reported 77 people in the jail on June 1, 2026, against a rated capacity of 144 beds. That count covers the local jail population, not every person with a Young County case who may have moved into state prison, federal custody, or immigration detention.
The population rises and falls through arrests, magistrate review, bond posting, warrants, detainers, sentencing, and transfers. A person arrested by a Young County deputy, Graham Police Department, Olney Police Department, DPS, or another local agency may appear first in the county roster. If the court later sentences the person to TDCJ, the lookup changes to the state prison locator. If a federal hold, U.S. Marshals process, or ICE detainer is involved, the local roster may show a short hold line while the long-term record sits elsewhere.
Young County Inmate Population Statistics
TCJS is the strongest official source for Young County jail population figures. Its June 2026 current inmate population report lists the rated capacity, current population, and percent of capacity. A separate June 2026 incarceration-rate report lists the county population used for rate work, the average daily population, and the rate per 1,000 residents.
| Measure | Figure | Source and date |
|---|---|---|
| Rated capacity | 144 beds | TCJS Current Inmate Population Report, June 1, 2026 |
| Total jail population | 77 | TCJS Current Inmate Population Report, June 1, 2026 |
| Percent of capacity | 53.47% | TCJS Current Inmate Population Report, June 1, 2026 |
| Average daily population | 66 | TCJS Incarceration Rate Report, June 1, 2026 |
| Incarceration rate | 3.61 per 1,000 residents | TCJS Incarceration Rate Report, June 1, 2026 |
The Texas Commission on Jail Standards publishes the source workbooks used for these figures. Those reports are population reports, not a name-search tool, so they should be paired with the local jail list when the question is about a specific person.
TCJS public pages show the state role in jail standards, population reporting, complaints, and inspection oversight.
The TCJS source is most useful for capacity, population, and standards context; the Young County roster remains the current-custody lookup.
Young County Inmate Population Trends
The recent TCJS trend shows Young County Jail below rated capacity across the inspected months, even when the count reached higher levels in late 2025. The October 2025 report showed 101 people in a 144-bed jail, or about 70.1 percent of capacity. The June 2026 report showed 77 people, or about 53.5 percent of capacity.
| Month or date | Total population | Capacity | Percent capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jan. 1, 2024 | 56 | 144 | 38.9% |
| Oct. 1, 2025 | 101 | 144 | 70.1% |
| Dec. 1, 2025 | 94 | 144 | 65.3% |
| Jan. 1, 2026 | 88 | 144 | 61.1% |
| Feb. 1, 2026 | 73 | 144 | 50.7% |
| Mar. 1, 2026 | 85 | 144 | 59.0% |
| Apr. 1, 2026 | 85 | 144 | 59.0% |
| May 1, 2026 | 75 | 144 | 52.1% |
| June 1, 2026 | 77 | 144 | 53.5% |
These numbers do not replace the roster. They show the jail's load at monthly reporting points, while the roster can change whenever a booking, release, transfer, or hold is entered into the local system.
Who Makes Up Young County Jail Custody
The June 1, 2026 TCJS row shows a population driven mainly by pretrial felony and misdemeanor custody. The larger reported groups included local male pretrial felons, local female pretrial felons, local Class A and B pretrial misdemeanants, convicted misdemeanants, parole violators, and people sentenced or awaiting movement to TDCJ divisions. The research also found individual roster rows with immigration-hold and ICE-detainer language, so a county booking may overlap with another agency's interest.
- Pretrial felony custody: TCJS listed 26 local male pretrial felons and 9 local female pretrial felons.
- Pretrial misdemeanor custody: Class C and Class A/B pretrial misdemeanor groups appeared in the June 2026 TCJS row.
- Sentenced jail custody: Convicted misdemeanants and state-jail felony categories were present in smaller counts.
- Holds and detainers: Roster examples included immigration hold and ICE detainer text, which may affect release.
Young County Jail Capacity
Young County Jail was not overcrowded in the latest inspected TCJS population row. The June 2026 total of 77 was a little over half of the 144-bed rated capacity. Earlier inspected months also stayed below capacity, although October 2025 was notably higher than the June 2026 count.
Capacity still matters for a searcher. A person can be physically held in the jail, housed for another local process, or waiting for a transfer. TCJS categories include local pretrial, convicted misdemeanor, parole, state-ready, contract, housed-elsewhere, and federal-related fields. Those categories are population reporting fields, not public roster profile pages.
Laws Governing Young County Inmate Records
Texas law sets the public-record backdrop for Young County inmate records. The local jail list gives fast current-custody access, but older booking records, jail records not posted online, and court filings may require a written request or clerk contact. Some records can be withheld or limited by juvenile rules, law-enforcement exceptions, expunction, nondisclosure, or court order.
Key Texas authorities:
Texas Government Code Chapter 552 is the Public Information Act framework for requesting existing sheriff and jail records.
Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 66 defines criminal justice information and reporting of arrest, prosecution, disposition, sentence, and correctional handling data.
Texas Local Government Code Chapter 351 covers county jail duties and jail standards.
TCJS Minimum Jail Standards govern many jail records, classification, supervision, health, reports, and facility standards.
Young County and State Prison Custody
No TDCJ prison unit was located in Young County in the official state unit directory. That does not make the state locator optional. Once a person is sentenced to TDCJ and transported out of the county jail, the Young County roster is no longer the main lookup.
The Texas Department of Criminal Justice inmate information page explains online, email, and phone routes for prison location and general information. The TDCJ/IVSS search path supports name, SID number, and current TDCJ number searches, and it also supports notification subscriptions for eligible records.
| Custody type | Where to search | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Current Young County jail custody | NetData current jail list | Local booking, dorm, charge line, and current listed custody |
| Sentenced Texas prison custody | TDCJ/IVSS locator | State prison location, offenses, projected release data, and notifications |
| Federal sentence custody | BOP Inmate Locator | Federal inmates from 1982 to present |
| Immigration detention | ICE Online Detainee Locator | A-number or biographical detainee search |
How to Search Young County Inmates
The official Young County inmate search path starts at the county jail page and opens the NetData/i3 Verticals current jail list. The form is free and does not show a login requirement.

- Call the jail or sheriff when custody, release, bond, or hold status must be confirmed.
The Young County jail inmate records page gives a fuller roster walkthrough for name searches, search fields, and fallback channels.
The NetData roster search form is the county-linked search page for current Young County jail listings.
The search form is useful for current custody, but its public fields are limited and do not include every record a family member may need.
Current Young County Jail Lookup
The roster form has only a few visible controls. It has a beginning date field, a starting inmate name field, and the Inmate Listing submit button. Hidden system fields point the request to Young County. No warrant filter, booking-status filter, facility dropdown, export button, or public login was visible in the inspected form.
| Field label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginning Date | Date | No | Blank includes all dates; the form converts the chosen date to MM/DD/YYYY. |
| Starting Inmate Name | Text | No | Appears to start the list near a name rather than act as a modern contains search. |
| S109LIB, S109PFX, S109CNTY, S109COCOD | Hidden | System required | Hidden values route the request to the Young County dataset. |
| Inmate Listing | Submit button | n/a | Runs the current jail list request. |
Roster rows inspected on June 30, 2026 included same-day bookings, but no refresh interval was posted. If a person was just arrested, the booking may not yet be visible because intake, medical clearance, transport, or magistrate action may still be underway.
What Young County Inmate Records Show
Young County's public roster is list-style. The inspected output did not show public mugshot thumbnails, bond amounts, court dates, warrant numbers, arresting agency, judge, demographic profile, or clickable full-profile pages. It did show fields that help identify the person and connect a jail record to visitation and court follow-up.
| Field | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Inmate name | Name in last-name-first format, sometimes with a middle name. |
| Arrest number | Local arrest or booking identifier used in the roster row. |
| Book date | Booking date in MM/DD/YYYY format. |
| Dorm | Housing code such as E-4, T-1, S-4, W-1, or similar unit labels. |
| Charge | Short booking charge or hold text, such as DWI, assault, immigration hold, or ICE detainer. |
| Prior/next data | Internal list navigation data that may indicate more rows exist. |
Past Young County Inmate Records
The NetData list is designed for current or listed custody. The research did not find a public archive of old Young County bookings, a daily booking PDF archive, or a separate released-inmate search. For older booking records, the practical path is a written public-information request to the sheriff's office under Texas Government Code Chapter 552.
A request should identify the person by name, arrest number if known, booking date if known, and the type of existing record requested. The sheriff's office can still withhold or redact records when a legal exception applies. For court filings after an arrest, use the District Clerk, County Court/County Clerk route, re:SearchTX, or DPS conviction search instead of relying on the jail roster.
State and Federal Inmate Search
Young County has no located TDCJ prison, BOP facility, ICE detention center, or federal detention center. The locator channels still matter because local arrests can lead to state prison, federal proceedings, or immigration detention. Young County roster examples with immigration holds show why the fallback chain is not just theoretical.
Use TDCJ/IVSS for Texas prison custody, the BOP Inmate Locator for sentenced federal custody, and the ICE Online Detainee Locator for immigration detention. Federal pretrial custody may route through the U.S. Marshals Service in the Northern District of Texas before any BOP record exists.
- Detainer
- A notice or request from another agency that may affect release from the county jail.
- Pretrial
- Custody before a conviction or final court result.
- TDCJ
- The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, which runs state prison custody.
- BOP
- The Federal Bureau of Prisons, which covers many sentenced federal inmates.
Young County Detention Facilities
The facility map for Young County has one local detention facility for current county custody. No separate Young County work-release annex, regional jail, state prison, BOP facility, ICE facility, or city jail roster was located in the official sources inspected. City police arrests generally route to the county jail for custody lookup once booking is complete.
- Young County Jail holds adult pretrial detainees, local sentenced inmates, warrants, state-ready categories, local holds, and some people with federal or immigration-related hold text.
