Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 20 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Temple City, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 11 of them sit inside Temple City itself.
The rest sit in Arcadia (8), San Gabriel (1).
7 of them name an operator in the record: Arcadia Police Department (3), El Monte Police Department (2), San Gabriel Police Department (1), Temple City (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
