The Federal Prison Camp, Montgomery (FPC Montgomery) is a minimum-security United States federal prison for male inmates in Montgomery, Alabama. It is operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a division of the United States Department of Justice.

FPC Montgomery is located on the grounds of Maxwell Air Force Base, in northwest Montgomery, Alabama.[1] The majority of inmates at the camp serve time for white-collar, drug-related, or immigration crimes and do not have a history of violence, and most are on sentences under 10 years and have a personal history making them fit for camp placement.
