Flock & ALPR Cameras in Hillsborough, Nebraska

Volunteers have reported 27 automated license plate readers in and around Hillsborough — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 27 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Hillsborough, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside Hillsborough itself.

The rest sit in Omaha (21), Jefferson Precinct (3), Union Precinct (3).

2 of them name an operator in the record: Omaha PD (2). 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 Hillsborough

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