Broome County Facility Overview

Broome County Sheriff's Correctional Facility is operated by the Broome County Sheriff's Office Corrections Division. The county describes it as a 536-bed direct-supervision correctional facility in the Town of Dickinson. It is the primary and only confirmed local detention facility in the Broome County facility map, and it serves the practical jail role for local arrests, court remands, locally sentenced inmates, and several outside-agency custody groups.

The facility opened in 1996. The sheriff's Corrections Division says it was the second facility in New York State to attain listed recognition from the New York State Commission of Correction, the New York State Sheriff's Association, and the National Commission on Correctional Health Care. A 2015 expansion converted old interior exercise space and added a medical unit. Those building details matter because medical housing, restricted housing, disease screening, and discharge planning appear repeatedly in official Broome jail materials.

The official Broome County Corrections Division page is the source for the facility's capacity, visitation, mail, phone, tablet, commissary, and bail information.

Broome County Facility Population

The Broome County jail's published capacity is 536 beds. The DCJS/SCOC jail population report prepared June 1, 2026 listed a May 2026 average daily census of 447 for Broome County, plus an in-house count of 454. That state report also listed two people boarded out and eight boarded in. These figures describe the Broome County jail population in aggregate, not a public roster of named inmates.

Security and housing categories in official materials include General Housing, I/Max-Female, Special Housing, D-Pod, and Restricted/Medical. State jail population reporting also uses sentenced, federal, technical parole violator, state-ready, and other unsentenced categories. A person held in the facility may therefore be in local criminal custody, waiting for state transfer, held on a federal arrangement, or detained under immigration authority.


Who Broome County Jail Holds

The jail holds people remanded by local courts, pretrial detainees, locally sentenced jail inmates, technical parole violators, state-ready inmates, federal inmates, ICE detainees, and other unsentenced people. Remand means a court ordered the person held. State-ready means the local sentence or case posture is ready for transfer to New York State DOCCS. A detainer or hold means another agency may affect release even if a local bail issue is resolved.

Find Broome County Jail Inmates

No official county-hosted public roster was located for Broome County Sheriff's Correctional Facility during the research pass. The county corrections page gives the facility contact and service information, but it does not publish a searchable current-inmate database, booking report, or public profile with charges, bond, housing, and mugshot fields. The lookup process therefore uses a set of official fallback channels.

  1. Call Broome County Sheriff's Correctional Facility at 607-778-1911 to verify current local custody.
  2. Use VINELink for custody notification if New York and the Broome facility appear in the public portal.
  3. Submit a Broome County FOIL request for sheriff records, booking records, or incident records not posted online.
  4. Search New York DOCCS if the person has moved to state prison after sentencing.
  5. Use the BOP locator for federal prison and the ICE locator for immigration custody.

For charges filed after arrest, use court records rather than the jail. Broome County criminal cases may appear through New York WebCriminal, eCourts, or the court clerk with jurisdiction. The jail can confirm custody, but prosecutors and courts control the filed charges and case events.


Broome County Jail Contact

The public safety facility address is the jail contact point for custody and facility questions. Inmate mail uses a separate P.O. Box format, so do not send personal mail to the street address unless the jail directs it. The sheriff's Records Division and county FOIL process handle many record requests, while court records and police reports may belong to other offices.

Broome County Jail Booking

A person arrested in Broome County may be taken first by the sheriff, Binghamton Police, Vestal Police, Endicott Police, Johnson City Police, New York State Police, or another agency. The jail booking path can include identity verification, warrant checks, property inventory, medical and mental-health screening, booking photograph, fingerprints, classification, housing assignment, phone or tablet access, and court routing. The official pages do not publish a full booking manual or a public booking refresh schedule.

The sheriff's Corrections Division says the facility monitors gang membership and activity, works with the Broome County Health Department on screening and treatment for sexually transmitted and contagious diseases, and conducts discharge-planning meetings with Mental Health, BOCES, Jail Medical, and Council of Churches staff. These are facility operations, not proof that a person is currently listed in a public roster.


Broome County Facility Programs

The facility also functions as a training site. The Corrections Training Academy offers basic, supervisory, executive, and defensive tactic specialty courses for sheriff's office members and surrounding agencies. The 2024 corrections progress report says more than 400 incarcerated individuals completed more than 4,800 individual training courses after a November 2023 digital learning initiative, and that the jail was adding over 10,000 book titles to tablets in 2024.

Note: Confirm custody, housing status, and visitation approval with the jail before traveling or sending funds.
