North Hollywood Division, and the Burbank line
Toluca Lake is mostly covered by the LAPD North Hollywood Division. The station is at 11640 Burbank Boulevard. But Toluca Lake sits right against the city of Burbank, and Burbank has its own police department. Where the arrest happened, on which side of the line, decides which agency has the person.
An LAPD arrest here usually leads to the Valley Jail Section in Van Nuys, though LAPD can move people. A Burbank arrest starts at the Burbank jail and may later transfer to county custody. If you are not sure, call us with the street name and we will help you work it out. See our North Hollywood station page and the Valley Jail page.
Streets, studios and the freeways
Riverside Drive is the neighborhood's main street, with Forest Lawn Drive on the north edge and the Lakeside Golf Club nearby. The 134 and the 101 Freeways run close by, and the studio lots around Barham Boulevard and Olive Avenue bring workers, visitors and late shoots into the area. Police calls here often involve traffic stops, drunk driving after dinners or events, and the occasional property dispute.
If your family member was pulled over after a night out, check whether they were cited and released. Our guide on pre-arraignment release explains when that happens. If bail is required, the amount comes from the county schedule. See how much bail is in California.
Getting to Van Nuys
From Riverside Drive, take the 170 north to the 101 west, or go over Burbank Boulevard to Van Nuys. It is about twenty minutes at night and may take forty at rush hour. The 101 is the usual trouble spot. You can also take surface streets along Burbank Boulevard when the freeway stalls.
The Valley Jail at 6240 Sylmar Avenue sits next to the Van Nuys courthouse, so weekday parking is tight. Plan for a short walk from a lot.
How the numbers work
The premium is 10% of the bail on our filed rate. With a private attorney, or a veteran defendant or co-signer, it is 8%. Start with 1% down on approved credit, and the balance goes on a monthly plan.
- On $10,000 bail, the premium is $1,000 and 1% down is $100.
- On $75,000 bail, the premium is $7,500 and 1% down is $750.
Higher bail amounts need more careful approval, and may involve collateral. We tell you what applies before you sign. Use the calculator and read 1% down versus 10% bail.
Discretion and families
Families in a small, close neighborhood often worry about privacy. We cannot control public court records or what police report, but we handle your application and your call with care and plain respect. We will not lecture you. We will explain the bond and the dates.
If you want an attorney, we cannot recommend one, but our resources directory lists public defenders, court self help centers and legal aid. Read co-signer responsibilities before you agree to sign.
Valley court and next dates
LAPD North Hollywood cases are usually heard at Van Nuys Courthouse East at 6230 Sylmar Avenue. Burbank cases may go to the Burbank Courthouse instead, so check your papers. Every court date matters, and a missed one can put the bond at risk. See missed court dates.
You can apply online at /apply/ in about four minutes, with no Social Security number typed online.
Neighbors and special programs
We also serve North Hollywood and Studio City. Qualifying pregnant women, eight months or more, non-violent charge, bail of $50,000 or less, with a working co-signer, may get free bail with the premium waived, subject to approval. If you do not qualify, ask anyway. We are often able to help. See the program page.
If your person is moved to county custody after arraignment, we can still help. Read how to find someone in jail for the locator and phone line, 213-473-6100.
Most families first hear about an arrest by phone, late, from a number they do not know. Stay calm and write things down. Ask for the person's full name, the place of arrest and the time. Ask whether they were told a bail amount. If they were released with a citation, they may already be home.
Then call us. We will check the booking, tell you the bail amount, and explain the choices. You do not need to know the legal terms. Just tell us what happened in your own words.
1% down is a down payment on approved credit, not the price of the bond. The premium is the rate on file with the California Department of Insurance, 10% of the bail amount, or 8% when a private attorney is retained or you or the defendant is a veteran. The balance goes on a payment plan.
