The California Mens Colony (CMC) is located in San Luis Obispo County, 4 miles northwest of the city of San Luis Obispo on State Highway One.
The 356-acre complex houses almost 7,000 inmates (with a designed capacity of 3,800), most in medium security facilities (security levels II and III). For years this was the largest correctional institution, in number of inmates, in the country, until it was surpassed by a prison in Soledad (85 miles to the north), which itself was surpassed by a new facility at Corcoran, in the Central Valley. It has been a prison since 1954.
