Current Iowa Correctional System Population
This query presents individuals who are actively supervised in Iowa's correctional system - within institutions, community based corrections, or other. Generally, "other" would include individuals who are serving time somewhere else, such as another state or federal prison. In some instances, they may be sentenced to prison, but are awaiting transfer and are still in jail or a medical facility. It also provides demographic information (sex, race and ethnic origin) for the individual, the individual's current age, their highest educational level, whether they are an English speaker, whether they had previously served in the U.S. Military, the primary region they are supervised by, and their current primary supervision status.
