Ashland, CA
Ashland is an unincorporated community, not an incorporated city — it doesn't have its own city government or police department. Law enforcement here is provided directly by the Alameda County Sheriff's Office's Eden Township Substation, the same as neighboring Sunol and other unincorporated pockets of the county.
Ashland's 2020 Census population is 23,823. It sits directly between San Leandro and Hayward, and like the rest of Eden Township it has no city government and no police department of its own — Sheriff's deputies handle it directly.
The name comes from the Oregon ash trees that once grew throughout the area. In the 1930s Ashland was home to a real automobile racetrack, on the ground where Bayfair Mall stands today.
Because the Sheriff's Office is the arresting agency here, a booking goes into the county system immediately, at Santa Rita Jail, 5325 Broder Boulevard, Dublin, (925) 551-6500 — no city-to-county transfer step to wait through.
No courthouse assignment is confirmed. The Hayward Hall of Justice at 24405 Amador Street is the closest Superior Court location and the reasonable candidate on geography alone, but the court publishes nothing naming Ashland.

Arrest & Booking — What Happens First
Every Ashland arrest follows the same path. Here is each step, with the real contact at each one.
Find An InmateArrest and transport
An arrest in Ashland is made by Sheriff's deputies working out of the Eden Township Substation. There is no city police department step, because Ashland has no city government — the case is in the county system from the first minute.
Transfer into county custody
Anyone not cited and released moves into the Alameda County Sheriff's Office jail system, anchored by Santa Rita Jail, 5325 Broder Boulevard, Dublin, (925) 551-6500. We confirm the exact housing location by phone rather than assuming it.
Bail is set
Once booking is complete, bail is usually set from the countywide bail schedule adopted under Penal Code §1269b. A judge can raise, lower, or eliminate it at arraignment.
Posting the bond
We post directly with the facility holding your loved one. Premiums are regulated under Insurance Code §1800 and run 10% of the bail amount, with as low as 1% down for qualifying cosigners.

Eden Township Substation — Alameda County Sheriff's Office

(510) 667-7721
ACSO's own facility directory lists the Eden Township Substation at 15001 Foothill Boulevard, San Leandro, CA 94578, (510) 667-7721, and Alameda County's building directory shows the same address. The 2000 150th Avenue address that circulates elsewhere does not appear on any official county page we could find. ACSO's directory does separately list a Castro Valley Marketplace location at 3295 Castro Valley Boulevard with no phone number, which suggests the substation may be backed by smaller offices — we have not been able to confirm what that location is, so call the substation number before driving anywhere.

Alameda County Superior CourtBail Amounts In Ashland — And What It Costs You
Bail set at booking follows Alameda County's uniform bail schedule adopted under Penal Code §1269b, so amounts in Ashland match the countywide figures — there is no separate Ashland schedule. Premiums are regulated under Insurance Code §1800 and typically run 10% of the bail amount.
Bail Payment Breakdown
| Total Bail Amount | 10% Premium (Total Cost) | 1% Down (To Start) |
|---|---|---|
| $5,000 | $500 | $50 |
| $10,000 | $1,000 | $100 |
| $25,000 | $2,500 | $250 |
| $50,000 | $5,000 | $500 |
| $100,000 | $10,000 | $1,000 |
Examples only. The 1% tier requires approved credit and a qualifying cosigner.
How The Math Works
Bail is set at $25,000. California's regulated premium is 10%, so your cost is $2,500. The Bail Network posts the full $25,000 with the court. The premium is earned and non-refundable once the bond is posted — that is California Insurance Code §1800, not our policy. Qualifying families can arrange payment plans starting as low as 1% down.
What Bail Costs By Charge Level
Legal Authority
Bail schedules are set by the Alameda County Superior Court judges in accordance with California Penal Code §1269b. Specific amounts may vary based on prior convictions and special circumstances.
Payment Plans — How Families Actually Pay
The premium is regulated, but how you pay it is not one-size-fits-all. Qualifying families can start as low as 1% down and pay the balance on a written schedule.
Payment Plans
Flexible schedules on the premium itself — ask about monthly arrangements built around what you actually earn.
Collateral Options
Many bonds, especially lower-tier misdemeanors and first-offense DUIs, do not require collateral at all.
Multiple Payment Methods
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, ACH bank transfer, Zelle, and cash.
The 10% premium is non-refundable once the bond is posted, regardless of the case outcome — that is California law (Insurance Code §1800), not Bail Network policy.
Qualifications
Who Qualifies — Bail Denial And Down-Payment Tiers
Misdemeanor Arrests — Almost Always Bailable
The county bail schedule adopted under Penal Code §1269b applies, so no judge is required for most cases. Release is often same-day once bail is set and the bond is posted.
Felony Arrests — Usually Bailable
Bail is commonly set at arraignment, and Penal Code §1270.1 requires a formal hearing before release on certain serious or violent felonies.
Bail-Denial Cases — Bail May Be Denied
Under Article I, §12 of the California Constitution, bail can be denied for capital offenses and for violent or sexual-assault felonies where the evidence is strong. In re Humphrey (2021) requires courts to weigh ability to pay before setting an unaffordable amount.
Domestic Violence — Protective Orders Apply
An Emergency Protective Order is often issued at arrest, with a longer Criminal Protective Order possible at arraignment. No-contact conditions typically apply on release — read them carefully before going home.
When Bail Can Be Denied
Under Article I, §12 of the California Constitution, bail can be denied for capital offenses, and for felonies involving acts of violence or sexual assault on another person, when the facts are evident and the presumption of guilt is great.
In In re Humphrey (2021), the California Supreme Court held that a court cannot set bail an arrestee is unable to afford without first considering their ability to pay and less restrictive alternatives. That argument is made at the bail hearing itself.
Payment Options
Down-Payment Tiers
1% is the lowest down payment we offer, but 5% is generally the sweet spot for bail bond payments.
- 1%1% downLowest Down
Strongest cosigner profile — good credit, long employment, homeowner or verifiable equity.
- 3%3% down
Solid credit and stable work history, with a local cosigner.
- 5%5% downSweet Spot
Mixed credit or shorter work history, still with a qualifying cosigner.
- 10%10% down
No cosigner, thin credit, prior failure-to-appear history, or a high-exposure charge.
We tell you the tier you actually qualify for before anything is signed — never a low number quoted to get you off the phone.

Why do I see two different populations for Ashland?
The official 2020 Census count is 23,823. A lower figure near 21,925 circulates from older or estimated data — we publish the Census number and tell you about the other one rather than quietly picking one.
