Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 23 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Revere, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 16 of them sit inside Revere itself.
The rest sit in Chelsea (6), Malden (1).
15 of them name an operator in the record: Revere Police (9), The Home Depot (4), Chelsea Police (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
