Flock & ALPR Cameras in Middleville, Michigan

Volunteers have reported 6 automated license plate readers in and around Middleville — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 6 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Middleville, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 1 of them sits inside Middleville itself.

The rest sit in Thornapple Township (5).

6 of them name an operator in the record: Barry County Sheriff's Office (6). 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.
