Flock & ALPR Cameras in Johnson City, New York

Volunteers have reported 24 automated license plate readers in and around Johnson City — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 24 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Johnson City, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside Johnson City itself.

The rest sit in Town of Vestal (10), Village of Johnson City (7), City of Binghamton (6), Town of Union (1).

3 of them name an operator in the record: Binghamton University PD (2), binghamton university police department (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
