This tracker covers the largest known active facilities and the confirmed warehouse conversion pipeline. It does not represent all 225+ active ICE facilities. Per-facility population data for most sites is not publicly available — ICE does not publish it. Full network: Freedom for Immigrants map · Vera Institute dashboard.
Detained population figures are snapshots. 73,000 is a single-day peak Jan 16, 2026 (CBS News). 68,289 is TRAC's bi-weekly pull Feb 7, 2026 (TRAC). Neither includes short-term staging, field offices, or courtrooms. Kocher/Syracuse documented 70,766 on Jan 24, 2026 as the highest on public record.
Confirmed costs only. Socorro TX, Tremont PA, Hamburg PA, Romulus MI, San Antonio TX, Roxbury NJ costs not disclosed by DHS as of March 25, 2026. $700M total: AIC Feb 2026. $38.3B conversion budget: Washington Post Feb 2026, sourced from ICE internal planning documents.
"Mega center" uses ICE's own internal classification for facilities holding 7,500–10,000 people, from the ICE Detention Reengineering Initiative documents released by New Hampshire, Feb 2026. Plan: 8 mega centers + 16 regional processing centers. Three mega sites purchased; five locations not publicly disclosed.
Criminal history figures: TRAC (Feb 7, 2026), Cato Institute (Nov 2025), FactCheck.org (Jan 28, 2026), Brennan Center. Cato used nonpublic ICE data leaked to their researchers. "Criminal conviction" excludes pending charges; charges are often dismissed or result in acquittal, including after deportation.
$45B detention-specific and $85B total ICE funding from the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," July 2025 — AIC, Brennan Center, KPBS/NPR. $3.4B prior annual baseline from Brennan Center's analysis of the most recent pre-bill DHS budget.
528 vs. 189 facility gap: Vera Institute. Bi-weekly reporting defiance: Kocher/Syracuse. Erroneous data: TRAC. FOIA obstruction: AIC and NILA. Paper FOIA restriction: ICE.gov, Feb 23, 2026.
The 100,000 bed figure is the administration's stated near-term operational goal. The $45B appropriation from the One Big Beautiful Bill funds ICE to operate upwards of 135,000 beds through the end of FY2029. Source: AIC Feb 2026. The 100K figure is a floor; the warehouse program is building toward a larger, owned-infrastructure system independent of private contractors.
GEO Group and CoreCivic profit and revenue figures are from their published 2025 annual earnings reports, as reported by Scripps News, The Appeal, and Common Dreams. Political contribution figures from OpenSecrets and CREW. Stock price figures from CREW (Jul 2025).
Facility status as of March 25, 2026: operating, pending 11th Circuit appeal. Cost figures from Florida Policy Institute and WUSF. Federal reimbursement: Florida Phoenix Oct 2025. Conditions: Amnesty International Dec 2025. The 31% final-order figure is from NBC6 Investigates analysis of ICE FOIA data.
Peak migrant population at Guantánamo Bay was fewer than 200, confirmed by IPTP. All migrants returned to U.S. mainland by March 12, 2025 (Washington Post). $100K daily cost figure from court filings and congressional delegation accounts reported by NPR. The operation's legal status remains unresolved; ICE has not ruled out future transfers. Small numbers of Cuban nationals were transferred in late 2025 (IPTP).
The +7% removal figure compares total removals under Trump's second term (FY2025 + FY2026 YTD = 290,603) to Biden's FY2024 full-year removals, from TRAC, Mar 2026. This figure does not include voluntary departures or returns. TRAC notes the Trump administration continues to conceal most details about enforcement activities and costs.
