Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 35 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Elm Grove, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 6 of them sit inside Elm Grove itself.
The rest sit in Wauwatosa (18), Brookfield (6), New Berlin (3), West Allis (2).
16 of them name an operator in the record: Mayfair Mall / Brookfield Properties Retail Inc. (7), Flock Safety (4), Brookfield (3), Waukesha County Sheriff's Office (1), West Allis (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
