Flock & ALPR Cameras in Southlake, Texas

Volunteers have reported 18 automated license plate readers in and around Southlake — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 18 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Southlake, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 14 of them sit inside Southlake itself.

The rest sit in Colleyville (2), Grapevine (1), Keller (1).

1 of them name an operator in the record: Colleyville PD (1). 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 Southlake

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