Flock & ALPR Cameras in Garden Ridge, Texas

Volunteers have reported 12 automated license plate readers in and around Garden Ridge — 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 Garden Ridge, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside Garden Ridge itself.

The rest sit in Schertz (11), San Antonio (1).

4 of them name an operator in the record: FedEx (4). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

What’s watching Garden Ridge

These aren’t red-light cameras.

Counts cover cameras reported closest to Garden Ridge (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
