The inmates housed at this California facility are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the length of their sentence and the past criminal history).

This compound operates onsite to meet most of the inmate's needs, including dietary, health, fitness, education, religious practices, entertainment, and many others. Most private prisons are kept in top condition as they are constantly subjected to rigorous inspections and would like to keep a clean record to maintain government contracts.
