Flock & ALPR Cameras in Deerfield, Illinois

Volunteers have reported 9 automated license plate readers in and around Deerfield — 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 Deerfield, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 5 of them sit inside Deerfield itself.

The rest sit in Highland Park (3), Northbrook (1).

3 of them name an operator in the record: Hybernia HOA (2), Highland Park Police Department (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

Source: community-mapped camera data (OpenStreetMap, ODbL), with addresses resolved by Nominatim.

What’s watching Deerfield

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