Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 25 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of South Valley, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 2 of them sit inside South Valley itself.

The rest sit in Albuquerque (20).

1 of them name an operator in the record: Flock Safety (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
