Abstract: There are fifteen community jails
located throughout Alaska and operated by local police departments
under contract with the state. Several years of booking log data
enables us to examine differences among these jails, particularly
differences between those on the road system and those available
only by air. Demographic information about those held, the types
of offenses for which they are held, and differences among the
jails regarding demographic and legal variables are examined.
