Flock & ALPR Cameras in Wixom, Michigan

Volunteers have reported 23 automated license plate readers in and around Wixom — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 23 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Wixom, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 10 of them sit inside Wixom itself.

The rest sit in Lyon Charter Township (8), Commerce Charter Township (3), Milford Charter Township (2).

22 of them name an operator in the record: Wixom Police Department (10), Oakland County Sheriff's Office (5), Lowe's (4), Milford Police Department (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 Wixom

These aren’t red-light cameras.

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