Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
These data are about the population in Texas's jails and come from the Texas Commission on Jail Standards. There are three files: on the number of pregnant women in jail; on the number of immigration detainers; and general information about who is incarcerated (e.g. number of felons, total population, capacity levels). See below for an outline of the years available and the variables included for each data set.
All data is in monthly units. The data is by county and in cases where there is a private facility, there will be two (or more given multiple private facilities) rows for that county with the private facility data labeled "private facility" in parentheses. To each file I also added the year, month, and a link to the PDF on the Texas Commission on Jail Standards' website where I downloaded the data.
