## The data

Source: HIFLD Prison Boundaries (U.S. Department of Homeland Security), final release, 2025\. Every Bureau of Prisons facility (FCI, USP, FPC, FMC, MDC, MCC, FDC, FTC) at the centre of its boundary, with its city. A complex’s prison and its camp count separately, so the total is higher than the Bureau’s count of institutions. ICE processing centers and tribal jails are not included.
