FPC Bryan is located 95 miles (153 km) northwest of Houston. [1] FPC Bryan along with FPC Lewisburg and FPC Lompoc have the lowest security rating of all the federal institutions, other than community corrections centers as those are known as halfway houses. [2] Due to the low classification, most of these facilities have no fence and a low staff-to-inmate ratio. [2]
