Benton County Jail and Detention Center

The Benton County Jail at 1300 SW 14th Street is one of the largest county jails in Arkansas. The facility is 100,355 square feet. Inmate capacity is 669. The admin area is 16,938 square feet. Total cost of the build, including land, was $16.8 million. The county funded the project through a half-cent jail tax. The jail opened for employee training in January 1999. Inmates moved in three months later, in April 1999.

In September 2025, the sheriff unveiled over $2 million in upgrades. The upgrade added a new medical wing, an expanded intake area, a new sally port, a body scanner, a laundry area, and more booking space. County capital savings and federal relief dollars paid for the project. Inmate work crews helped with the build to cut cost. The upgraded medical space now looks like a standard clinic. General care and dental services are offered on-site.

The jail is known for its Inmate Work Force Division. That group is made up of male and female inmates with non-violent charges. Work crews help with county projects. The program keeps inmates busy and trims costs.
