Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 9 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Rye, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside Rye itself.
The rest sit in City of Rye (9).
2 of them name an operator in the record: Westchester County Police RTC/Intelligence Regional and National Data Sharing (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

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