Flock & ALPR Cameras in Huntersville, North Carolina

Volunteers have reported 73 automated license plate readers in and around Huntersville — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 77 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Huntersville, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 39 of them sit inside Huntersville itself.

The rest sit in Charlotte (28), Davidson (2), Concord (1), Cornelius (1).

2 of them name an operator in the record: Cheshunt HOA (1), Lowe's (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
