Pitchess Detention Center, North
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department
What this facility means for your search
Pitchess North is listed at 29320 The Old Road in Castaic. It is not North County Correctional Facility (NCCF), even though both names include “North.”
If a call or document says only “North,” ask whether it means PDC North or NCCF. Confirm the full name against the current custody information before choosing a guide or scheduling a visit.
Check where someone is being held
Check LASD's custody page for the current lookup service and contact options. Confirm the current location before making a trip.
Open official custody information ↗Can’t find the person?
If county custody is confirmed but “Pitchess” is the only location supplied, ask the county information line to identify the specific facility. Searching several similarly named places is not a substitute for that confirmation.
At our October 19, 2026 review, LASD’s custody page reported its locator unavailable and listed the IRC public windows as alternatives. Check the original page for changes.

Check LASD’s current options ↗An empty result does not confirm release. For an official call, have the full legal name, date of birth and booking number if known. You do not need to enter those details on JailAlert.
What to ask when you call
- “Do you mean Pitchess North at 29320 The Old Road, or NCCF?”
- “Where should visitors check in for a North Facility appointment?”
- “Is there a transfer that changes which Pitchess facility I should contact?”
Write down the call date, the office reached and whom staff directed you to contact next. These are JailAlert’s suggested questions; the agency must confirm the answers.
