Jail overcrowding has been a problem in Alachua County for years but Wednesday sheriff's deputies took people inside the jail to showed them how much its improved. Deputies say this time last year they have close to eleven- hundred inmates but as of Wednesday they have 935.

WCJB's Gavin Johnson tells us, the visitors were expected to walk away from the tour thinking their tax dollars are well spent.
