Lakewood Sheriff Station

The Lakewood Station provides law enforcement services to Artesia Bellflower, Cerritos, Hawaiian Gardens, Lakewood and Paramount. Those arrested in this jurisdiction are booked at the Lakewood Station Jail.

Because this is a smaller facility, there is a high possibility that inmates may be transferred to a bigger facility if it becomes crowded. Normally, men are transferred to the Twin Towers Jail in Downtown Los Angeles, while women are transferred to the Lynwood Jail at the Century Station.

Transferring inmates can be a tedious process that involves plenty of paper work and computer updates. This can add a significant amount of time to the duration of a detainee's incarceration. For the fastest release, it is best to start the Bail bond process early as soon as possible to prevent a time-consuming transfer.
