Flock & ALPR Cameras in Taylors, South Carolina

Volunteers have reported 12 automated license plate readers in and around Taylors — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 12 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Taylors, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 3 of them sit inside Taylors itself.

The rest sit in Greer (4).

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

5 cameras have no municipality recorded yet.

Source: community-mapped camera data (OpenStreetMap, ODbL), with addresses resolved by Nominatim.

What’s watching Taylors
