List of Japanese-American internment camps
There were three types of camps for Japanese and Japanese-American civilians in the United States during World War II. Civilian Assembly Centers were temporary camps, frequently located at horse tracks, where Japanese Americans were sent as they were removed from their communities. Eventually, most were sent to Relocation Centers which are now most commonly known as internment camps or incarceration centers. Detention camps housed Nikkei considered to be disruptive or of special interest to the government. Civilian Assembly Centers
