Flock & ALPR Cameras in Coronado, California
Volunteers have reported 9 automated license plate readers in and around Coronado — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.
Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 9 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Coronado, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 7 of them sit inside Coronado itself.
The rest sit in San Diego (2).
4 of them name an operator in the record: Coronado Police Department (4). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

What’s watching Coronado
These aren’t red-light cameras. Automated license plate readers like Flock Safety’s photograph every plate that passes, log the time and place, and store it in a searchable database that’s often shared far beyond Coronado — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Coronado (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
