The Kotzebue Regional Jail is a low/medium-security detention center located at 258D 4th Ave PO Box 46 Kotzebue, AK which is operated locally by the Northwest Arctic Borough Regional Authority and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates have been here for less than five years.
