About the Randall County Jail

The Randall County Jail in Amarillo, Texas has been around since the 1960s. It occasionally does some renovations and expanded by another 144 beds in 2010 when the Amarillo City Jail was shut down, but other than that has always been a miserable place, and always overcrowded. Whether its because of spillover from surrounding counties of the city of Amarillo when they ran out of room, there never seems to be enough bed space, even with its current capacity of 454 beds.

In 2024 the Randall County Jail will attempt to solve this by adding another two pods, enough bed space for 96 more inmates, bringing the total bed space to 550.  Combined with neighboring Potter County, which has a population of 50,000 people less than Randall County, and they have 598 beds, that brings the total bed space for the two counties to 1,148 adult beds. The addition 96 beds is going to cost the county $20 million, $10 million of which came from the federal government's 2021 American Rescue Plan.

The Randall County Jail is located at 9100 S. Georgia Street in Amarillo, TX 79118. It shares the address with the Sheriff's Department, and you can reach the jail 24 hours a day by calling 806-468-5752.
