Facility Overview
Glendale Police Department serves a city of 196,543 people — the second-largest in this entire network after Long Beach — and books defendants at 131 North Isabel Street before cases move to the Glendale Courthouse on East Broadway.
A 2024 ranking placed Glendale as the 148th safest city in the United States — a real trust signal that reflects a professional, well-resourced department running a structured local booking operation.
A city this size means a busy booking desk. Processing after a Glendale arrest can take time at peak hours even though everything stays local.
Because Glendale books locally, the Sheriff's county inmate locator can come back empty in the first hours after an arrest here. No county record exists until a transfer happens.

Emergencies
911
A city jail is not a county visiting facility — local holds are short and visiting is limited.
Glendale's size means booking and release processing can run longer at peak times even when everything stays local.
A county inmate search in the first hours after a Glendale arrest can legitimately come back empty.
Local holds are not guaranteed to stay local. If a transfer downtown is going to happen, it can happen quickly — call as soon as you know about the arrest.

View pageBooking & Transfer Process
What actually happens after a Glendale Police Department arrest.
Arrest By Glendale PD
Glendale has its own police department, so the arrest, the report, and the booking all start with the city rather than the Sheriff's Department.
Booking At 131 N. Isabel Street
Identification, property, and paperwork happen at the department's own facility — expect longer processing at peak times in a city this size.
Bail Set From The County Schedule
Even a city booking uses the Los Angeles County bail schedule, so a figure exists immediately and a bond can be posted without waiting for arraignment.
Short Local Hold
Glendale holds defendants locally before any transfer into county custody.
Transfer To The Inmate Reception Center
When a transfer happens, men route to 450 Bauchet Street downtown and women to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood.
Arraignment At The Glendale Courthouse
Cases are heard at 600 East Broadway, where a judge can adjust bail or grant own-recognizance release.
How To Post Bail At The Glendale City Jail
Premium on a California bail bond is set by the rate filed with the Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800. The starting bail figure comes from the Los Angeles Superior Court’s felony and misdemeanor bail schedule, adopted under Penal Code §1269b, and review or reduction of that figure runs under Penal Code §1270.1.
Posting while someone is still at the Isabel Street facility is always the fastest path — it ends the matter locally and skips county intake entirely.
Nobody needs to drive to Glendale. Paperwork, signatures, and payment happen remotely, and we post the bond wherever the defendant actually is.
The premium is set by California law at 10 percent of the bail amount, and we write payment plans, no-collateral bonds, and no-money-down options against it.
Qualifying cosigners can start as low as 1% down on approved credit.
If A Court Date Is Missed After Release
A bond written for the Glendale city jail stays live through every appearance until the case resolves. A missed date can mean a forfeited bond and a bench warrant the same day, with a limited statutory window to bring the defendant back before the forfeiture becomes a judgment against the cosigner.

Which courthouse hears a Glendale case?
The Glendale Courthouse at 600 East Broadway — a dedicated courthouse located directly in the city.
How big is Glendale's police operation?
Glendale is the second-largest city in this entire network after Long Beach, with 196,543 residents — and a 2024 ranking placed it as the 148th safest city in the United States. It runs a professional, structured local booking operation.
Why can't I find my relative in the county inmate locator?
Because the county system only shows people already booked into county custody. Someone held at the Glendale city jail has no county record yet.
Can I post bail before a transfer to county jail?
Yes, and it is the fastest path. Bail is set from the county schedule immediately after booking, so a bond can be posted while the defendant is still at Isabel Street.
