Flock & ALPR Cameras in Richland Hills, Texas

Volunteers have reported 16 automated license plate readers in and around Richland Hills — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 16 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Richland Hills, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 4 of them sit inside Richland Hills itself.

The rest sit in Fort Worth (5), Hurst (5), North Richland Hills (2).

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

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

What’s watching Richland Hills
