Flock & ALPR Cameras in Lakewood, Colorado
Volunteers have reported 25 automated license plate readers in and around Lakewood — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.
Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 25 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Lakewood, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 16 of them sit inside Lakewood itself.
The rest sit in Denver (6).
2 of them name an operator in the record: The Home Depot (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
3 cameras have no municipality recorded yet.
Source: community-mapped camera data (OpenStreetMap, ODbL), with addresses resolved by Nominatim.

What’s watching Lakewood
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 Lakewood — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Lakewood (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
