Flock & ALPR Cameras in Crown Point, Indiana

Volunteers have reported 16 automated license plate readers in and around Crown Point — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 16 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Crown Point, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 13 of them sit inside Crown Point itself.

The rest sit in Center Township (3).

9 of them name an operator in the record: Crown Point Indiana Police (6), Lake County Indiana Sheriff (3). 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 Crown Point

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